    Abstract: Context. Modern stellar structure and evolution theory suffers from a lack of observational calibration for the interior physics of intermediate- and high-mass stars. This leads to discrepancies between theoretical predictions and observed phenomena that are mostly related to angular momentum and element transport. Analyses of large samples of massive stars connecting state-of-the-art spectroscopy to asteroseismology may provide clues as to how to improve our understanding of their interior structure. Aims. We aim to deliver a sample of O- and B-type stars at metallicity regimes of the Milky Way and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) galaxies with accurate atmospheric parameters from high-resolution spectroscopy, along with a detailed investigation of line-profile broadening, both for the benefit of future asteroseismic studies. Methods. After describing the general aims of our two Large Programs, we develop a dedicated methodology to fit spectral lines and deduce accurate global stellar parameters from high-resolution multi-epoch UVES and FEROS spectroscopy. We use the best available atmosphere models for three regimes covered by our global sample, given its breadth in terms of mass, effective temperature, and evolutionary stage. Results. Aside from accurate atmospheric parameters and locations in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, we deliver detailed analyses of macroturbulent line broadening, including estimations of the radial and tangential components. We find that these two components are difficult to disentangle from spectra with signal-to-noise ratios of below 250. Conclusions. Future asteroseismic modelling of the deep interior physics of the most promising stars in our sample will provide much needed information regarding OB stars, including those of low metallicity in the LMC.

    Abstract: KIC 4150611 is a high-order multiple composed of a triple system.\ It comprises: (1) a F1V primary (Aa) that is eclipsed on a 94.2d period by a tight 1.52d binary composed of two dim K/M dwarfs (Ab1 and Ab2), which also eclipse each other; (2) an 8.65d eccentric, eclipsing binary composed of two G stars (Ba and Bb); and (3) another faint eclipsing binary composed of two stars of unknown spectral type (Ca and Cb). In addition to its many eclipses, the system is an SB3 spectroscopic multiple (Aa, Ba, and Bb), and the primary (Aa) is a hybrid pulsator that exhibits high amplitude pressure and gravity modes. In aggregate, this richness in physics offers an excellent opportunity to obtain a precise physical characterisation of some of the stars in this system. In this work we aim to characterise the F1V primary by modelling its complex eclipse geometry and disentangled stellar spectra in preparation for follow-up work that will focus on its pulsations. We employed a novel photometric analysis of the complicated eclipse geometry of Aa to obtain the orbital and stellar properties of the triple. We acquired 51 TRES spectra at the Fred L. Whipple Observatory, calculating radial velocities and orbital elements of Aa (SB1) and the B binary (SB2). These spectra and radial velocities were used to perform spectral disentangling for Aa, Ba, and Bb. Spectral modelling was applied to the disentangled spectrum of Aa to obtain atmospheric properties. From our eclipse modelling we obtain precise stellar properties of the triple, including the mass ratios ($M_ Aa /(M_ Ab1 +M_ Ab2 Ab1 /M_ Ab2 the separation ratio Aab /a_ Ab1Ab2 0.01$), orbital periods Aab Ab1Ab2 and stellar radii ( R R R Via radial velocity fitting and spectral disentangling, we find orbital elements for Aa, Ba, and Bb that are in excellent agreement with each other and with previous results in the literature. Spectral modelling on the disentangled spectrum of Aa provides constraints on the effective temperature eff K), surface gravity (log$(g) = 4.14 0.18$ dex), micro-turbulent velocity micro rotation velocity ($v i = 127 and metallicity M/H
