Notes. The first six sources are covered in the MESS program; the rest in the OT2 program. Given per source are the IRAS number, variability type (Mira or semiregular), pulsational period (P), 6.3 μm flux (F6.3 μm, with the suffix a for ISO SWS data and b for photometric data), adopted distance (d), range of distance estimates in the literature (Δd), stellar velocity with respect to the local standard of rest (νLSR), stellar luminosity (L), stellar effective temperature (T; with ° added for assumed values), gas mass-loss rate (g), terminal gas velocity (ν∞,g), and wind density tracer (g/ ν∞,g). The source denoted with () is of spectral type CJ and is possibly an extrinsic carbon star (Abia et al. 2010).
