Scientific paper

Low resolution IUE spectra were obtained for fifteen cool giant stars ranging in spectral type from K4.8 thru M5.9. These spectra were used to examine chromospheric activity and to evaluate the extent to which nonradiative heating affects the upper levels of cool giant photospheres. The stars were chosen because of their well determined wide band colors, TiO band strengths (from wing photometry), angular diameters (determined from lunar occultations), apparent bolometric fluxes as seen from Earth, and effective preliminary analysis of these observations is presented.
