Abstract: Effective temperatures for nine giant stars are derived from recent diameter determinations at 2.2 microns with the FLUOR beam combiner on the IOTA interferometer. A good overlap with previous studies for stars earlier than M6 is verified. The present data extend the temperature scale of giant stars based on direct measurements to types between M6 and M8.
