Abstract (from CDS):

High-precision stellar masses and radii measured directly from binaries can effectively calibrate stellar models. However, such a database containing full spectral types and a large range of metallicity is still not fully established. A continuous effort of data collection and analysis is requested to complete the database. In this work, we provide a catalog containing 184 binaries with independent atmospheric parameters and accurate masses and radii as the benchmark for stellar mass and radius. The catalog contains 56 new detached binaries from the LAMOST medium-resolution spectroscopic survey and 128 detached eclipsing binaries compiled from previous studies. We obtain the orbital solutions of the new detached binaries with uncertainties of masses and radii smaller than 5%. These new samples densify the distribution of metallicity of the high-precision stellar mass library and add nine hot stars with Teff > 8000 K. Comparisons show that these samples agree well with the PARSEC isochrones in Teff-logg-mass-radius-luminosity space. We compare mass and radius estimates from isochrone and spectral energy distribution fitting, respectively, with those from the binary orbital solution. We find that the precision of the stellar-model-dependent mass estimates is >10% and the precision of the radius estimates based on atmospheric parameters is >15%. These give a general view of the uncertainty of the usual approaches to estimate stellar mass and radius.
