| Abstract | We analyzed the long-cadence (LC) light curves of 5435 stars with effective temperatures of 7000-10,500 K in Data Release 25 of Kepler to extend the samples of A-type flare stars and study their flare properties. A total of 103 flare stars are detected, of which 72 have the Large Sky Area Multi-Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope spectral types, resulting in 51 A-type stars, including 17 new and 34 known. A total of 352 flares are detected from the 51 stars. The flare durations, amplitudes, and energies in the Kepler band are calculated, with medians of 2.5 hr, 2.1 mmag, and 10(35.8) erg, respectively. We give the flare frequency distribution (FFD) of the A-type stars. Within the same energy range, the flare rates of our FFD are lower than those in previous research, which was also based on Kepler LC data, and the FFD slope is consistent with that in the research. The activity-rotation relation of the A-type flare stars is shown for the first time, in which the flare activity decreases as the rotation period increases. The relation is similar to that of the late-type stars in previous studies. For the two relatively bright A-type flare stars, KIC 5360548 and KIC 9468475, three high-resolution spectra are observed on different nights for each of them, and radial velocities are calculated and compared with that of the previous research. The comparisons suggest that there is no evidence of the KIC 5360548 companion, and KIC 9468475 could have a low-mass companion. |
