As a result of a radial velocity follow-up of OGLE planetary transit candidates in Carina,
we report the discovery of two new transiting planets with very short orbital periods:
OGLE-TR-113 with ,

days, and
OGLE-TR-132 with
,
,
days.
These detections bring to three the number of known “very hot Jupiter”
(Jovian exoplanets like OGLE-TR-56 with periods around 1.5 days).
This indicates that the accumulation of periods around 3 days
found in radial velocity surveys does not reflect an absolute limit.
Key words: techniques: radial velocities / instrumentation: spectrographs / stars: planetary systems
