A Search for Mass Loss from Metal-Poor Field Red Giants using Data from theWISEandAKARISatellites

All-sky photometry from theWISEandAKARIsatellite observatories has been used to obtain mid-infrared photometry in the 4–20 μm range for a sample of almost 400 red giants with metallicities of [Fe/H] ≤ -0.6. The mid-infrared photometry has been combined withJandK S 2MASS photometry to produce a serie...
