Parameter catlogs of "Photometric Stellar Parameters for 195,478 KIC Stars"

Abstract The stellar atmospheric parameters and physical properties of stars in the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC) are of great significance for the study of exoplanets, stellar activity, and asteroseismology. However, despite extensive effort over the past decades, accurate spectroscopic estimates of these parameters are available for only about half of the stars in the full KIC catalog. In our work, by training relationships between photometric colors and spectroscopic stellar parameters from Gaia DR3, the Kepler Issac-Newton Survey, LAMOST DR10, and APOGEE DR17, we have obtained atmospheric-parameter estimates for over 195,000 stars, accounting for 97$\%$ of the total sample of KIC stars. We obtain 1$\sigma$ uncertainties of 0.1\,dex on metallicity [Fe/H], 100\,K on effective temperature $T_{\rm eff}$, and 0.2\,dex on surface gravity log $g$. In addition, based on these atmospheric parameters, we estimated the ages, masses, radii, and surface gravities of these stars using the commonly adopted isochrone-fitting approach. The resulting precisions are 20\% for ages, 0.1 $M_{\odot}$ for masses, 0.01 $R_{\odot}$ for radii and 0.1\,dex for surface gravities. These accurate parameters are expected to provide valuable insights for future studies on various fields.
