Descripción
We present results from spectroscopic follow-up observations of stars
identified in the Kepler field and carried out by teams of the Kepler
Follow-up Observation Program. Two samples of stars were observed over 6
yr (2009–2015): 614 standard stars (divided into
“platinum” and “gold” categories) selected based
on their asteroseismic detections and 2667 host stars of Kepler Objects
of Interest (KOIs), most of them planet candidates. Four data analysis
pipelines were used to derive stellar parameters for the observed stars.
We compare the T eff, log(g), and [Fe/H] values derived for
the same stars by different pipelines; from the average of the standard
deviations of the differences in these parameter values, we derive error
floors of ∼100 K, 0.2 dex, and 0.1 dex for T eff, log(g),
and [Fe/H], respectively. Noticeable disagreements are seen mostly at
the largest and smallest parameter values (e.g., in the giant star
regime). Most of the log(g) values derived from spectra for the platinum
stars agree on average within 0.025 dex (but with a spread of
0.1–0.2 dex) with the asteroseismic log(g) values. Compared to the
Kepler Input Catalog (KIC), the spectroscopically derived stellar
parameters agree within the uncertainties of the KIC but are more
precise and thus an important contribution toward deriving more reliable
planetary radii.
