All Tables

Table 1: Spectroscopic targets, listed in order of increasing Right Ascension (J2000 coordinates). The last column refers to the observing run, where "D5'' = DFOSC 1995, "E8'' = EMMI 1998 and "E0'' = EMMI 2000.
Table 2: Spectral classification and near-IR magnitudes (wavelengths in $\mu$ m).
Table 3: Mid-IR flux densities (in Jy, with the wavelengths in $\mu$ m). The column "s'' indicates the availability of an ISO spectrum ("y''). Values accompanied by a colon are uncertain, whilst question marks indicate detections that are suspect.
Table 4: Results from the modelling of the spectral energy distributions: the stellar effective temperature (from the optical spectrum), $T_{\rm eff}$ , the temperature at the inner radius of the dust envelope, $T_{\rm dust}$ , the wind speed, v, the bolometric luminosity, L, and the total (gas+dust) mass-loss rate, $\dot{M}$ . We omitted the DCMC prefix to the first four carbon stars.
Table 5: Galactic samples of red giants (Jura & Kleinmann 1989, 1990, 1992), with the spectral type, the stellar effective temperature, $T_{\rm eff}$ , the bolometric luminosity, L, and the mass-loss rates as determined by Jura & Kleinmann, $\dot{M}_1$ , and as predicted by our recipe, $\dot{M}_2$ . We omitted the IRAS prefix to some of the dust-enshrouded AGB stars.
Table A.1: Spectroscopic targets in the Milky Way, listed in order of increasing Right Ascension (J2000 coordinates) and accompanied by the observing run code (either "D5'' = DFOSC 1995, or "E0'' = EMMI 2000). Also listed are their spectral classifications and near-IR magnitudes and mid-IR flux densities (in Jy, with the wavelengths in $\mu$ m).
