Abstract

We are examining mass loss from globular clusters giant stars, focussing on metallicity dependance. We present three sets of observations: TIMMI-2 mid-IR spectra of 47 Tuc, UVES high-resolution optical spectra of several clusters, and an infrared atlas of omega Cen using the Spitzer Space Telescope.
