Given the angular diameter and total energy flux of a star, its effective temperature can be determined. Until recently, there were few well-determined angular diameters of cool stars, and effective temperature calibrations rested on angular diameter measurements of several not necessarily “normal” stars. The number of measured angular diameters of stars cooler than about spectral type G is steadily being increased by using the method of photoelectric observations of lunar occultations.
