摘要: Aims. We present the atmospheric structure and fundamental properties of red supergiants (RSGs) AH Sco, UY Sct, KW Sgr based on VLTI/AMBER observations. Methods. carried out spectro-interferometric observations in near-infrared K band (1.92–2.47 μm) with instrument spatial spectral resolutions 3 milliarcsec 1500, respectively, compared data to a new grid hydrostatic PHOENIX model atmospheres. Results. In our visibility data, we observe molecular layers water CO extended For uniform disk modeling, size increases at centered 1.9 μm 10% 25% bandheads 2.3–2.5 20%–35% respect near-continuum bandpass around 2.20 μm. Our spectra are well reproduced by The continuum values consistent limb-darkened as predicted models. However, visibilities do not predict large observed extensions layers. Comparing models, estimate Rosseland-mean photospheric angular diameters be 5.81 ± 0.15 mas, 5.48 0.10 3.91 0.25 respectively. Together distance
