Abstract (from CDS):

Stellar fundamental parameters are important in the asteroseismic study of Kepler light curves. However, the most used estimates in the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC) are not accurate enough for hot stars. Using a sample of B stars from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) spectral survey, we confirmed the systematic underestimation in the KIC effective temperature and overestimation in KIC surface gravity. The good agreement between LAMOST and other follow-up observations proved the accuracy of effective temperature and surface gravity of B stars derived from LAMOST low-resolution spectra. By searching through LAMOST data, we found four misclassified main-sequence B stars in the Kepler field, which had been previously classified as A-type variables. We present spectroscopic and detailed frequency analysis of these four stars based on LAMOST spectra and Kepler photometry.
