gr8stars. II.
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Many areas of astrophysics, including exoplanetary studies, rely on precise and accurate stellar parameters.
Description
This demands that uncertainties on these parameters truly reflect all biases and systematics. Within this second work of the gr8stars collaboration, we take a set of 585 bright FGK type dwarfs with high resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio spectra from the SOPHIE (Spectrographe pour l'Observation des Phenomenes des Interieurs stellaires et des Exoplanetes) spectrograph.
We determine stellar effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity using five different spectroscopic methods for each star, with an additional method used for comparisons. We find a typical scatter of 76K in Teff, 0.14dex in logg, and 0.07dex in [Fe/H]. These deviations are significantly larger than the average precision error on these parameters.

We furthermore use isochrone fitting to determine mass, radius, and age for all 585 stars, using input from all results. We use the radii determined by SED (Spectral Energy Distribution) fitting in the first gr8stars paper as a comparison to our isochronal radii from this work, in addition to comparing the isochronal logg to spectroscopic logg. The scatter in mass and radius from the use of different spectroscopic methods is investigated and propagated to exoplanetary parameters.
The induced fractional uncertainties in planetary radius (<~3 per cent) and mass (<~5 per cent) are found to be below those typically found in the literature. We estimate a lower limit on planetary equilibrium temperature fractional uncertainty of ~4 per cent, a noise floor that is currently not sufficiently represented in the literature.
