K2-260 b: a hot Jupiter transiting an F star, and K2-261 b: a warm Saturn around a bright G star

We present the discovery and confirmation of two new transiting giant planets from the Kepler extended mission K2. K2-260 b is a hot Jupiter transiting a $V=12.7$ F6V star in K2 Field 13, with a mass and radius of $M_{\star}=1.39_{-0.06}^{+0.05} M_{\odot}$ and $R_{\star}=1.69 \pm 0.03 R_{\odot}$. The planet has an orbital period of $P=2.627$ days, and a mass and radius of $M_P=1.42^{+0.31}_{-0.32} M_J$ and $R_P=1.552^{+0.048}_{-0.057} R_J$. This is the first K2 hot Jupiter with a detected secondary eclipse in the Kepler bandpass, with a depth of $71 \pm 15$ ppm, which we use to estimate a geometric albedo of $A_g\sim0.2$. We also detected a candidate stellar companion at 0.6" from K2-260; we find that it is very likely physically associated with the system, in which case it would be an M5-6V star at a projected separation of $\sim400$ AU. K2-261 b is a warm Saturn transiting a bright ($V=10.5$) G7IV/V star in K2 Field 14. The host star is a metal-rich ([Fe/H]$=0.36 \pm 0.06$), mildly evolved $1.10_{-0.02}^{+0.01} M_{\odot}$ star with $R_{\star}=1.65 \pm 0.04 R_{\odot}$. Thanks to its location near the main sequence turn-off, we can measure a relatively precise age of $8.8_{-0.3}^{+0.4}$ Gyr. The planet has $P=11.633$ days, $M_P=0.223 \pm 0.031 M_J$, and $R_P=0.850^{+0.026}_{-0.022} R_J$, and its orbit is eccentric ($e=0.39 \pm 0.15$). Its brightness and relatively large transit depth make this one of the best known warm Saturns for follow-up observations to further characterize the planetary system.
