Gas giants transiting bright nearby stars provide crucial insights into planetary system formation and evolution mechanisms. Most of these planets show certain average characteristics, serving as benchmarks for our understanding of planetary systems. However, outliers like the planet we present in this study, WASP-193 b, offer unique opportunities to explore unconventional formation and evolution processes. This planet completes an orbit around its V-band-magnitude 12.2 F9 main-sequence host star every 6.25 days. Our analyses found that WASP-193 b has a mass of 0.139 ± 0.029 MJ and a radius of 1.464 ± 0.058 RJ, translating into an extremely low density of 0.059 ± 0.014g cm−3, at least one order of magnitude less than standard gas giants like Jupiter. Typical gas giants such as Jupiter have densities that range between 0.2 g cm−3 and 2 g cm−3. The combination of its large transit depth (1.4%), extremely low density, high-equilibrium temperature (1,254 ± 31 K) and the infrared brightness of its host star (K-band magnitude 10.7) makes WASP-193 b an exquisite target for characterization by transmission spectroscopy (transmission spectroscopy metric ~600). One single JWST transit observation would yield detailed insights into its atmospheric properties and planetary mass, providing a unique window to explore the mechanisms behind its exceptionally low density and shed light on giant planets' diverse nature.
