Description
We present the interferometric angular diameters of 18 bright stars: HD3651 , HD9826, HD19994, HD75732, HD167042, HD170693, HD173416, HD185395, HD190360, HD217014, HD221345, HD1367, HD1671, HD154633, HD161178, HD161151, HD209369, HD218560. The first 11 host exoplanets (except HD185395). We combined these angular diameters {theta}_LD_ with the stellar distances to estimate the stellar radii. We perform SED fitting of the photometry to derive the stars bolometric flux Fbol with and without stellar extinction Av. We then give the effective temperature Teff_SED_ and angular diameter {theta}_SED_ from this SED fit, considering fixed Av, metallicity [Fe/H] and gravity log(g). Then, taking into account the stellar extinction, we derived from the bolometric flux and the measured angular diameters the effective temperature and luminosity to place the stars on the H-R diagram. We then used the PARSEC models to derive the best fit ages and masses of the stars, with error bars derived from Monte Carlo calculations. Typically, for main sequence stars, two distinct sets of solutions appear (an old and a young age). For stars that host known exoplanets, we also derive the exoplanets parameters considering the two different solutions (old and young): semi-major axis, planetary minimum mass and habitable zone of the host stars. Finally, we give the true mass, radius and density of the transiting exoplanet 55 Cnc e using the inteferometric radius and photometry.
