Abstract
By careful searching of synthetic and observed spectra in a sample of cool giant and supergiant stars, we have updated the continuum band-passes of near-infrared Wing three filter system. This photometric system measures the strength of Titanium Oxide (TiO) absorption in Near-Infrared (NIR) at 719 nm. We show that new reference continuum band-passes are essentially free from molecular absorptions and the updated TiO-index defines the temperature variation in a sample of cool giants with less scatter. A TiO-index vs. effective temperature calibration is derived based on new continuum band-passes.
