Abstract

We summarize some of the infrared work done on red giants in Vienna during the last years. Recent results presented in the poster concern the atmospheric dynamics, elemental abundances and dust mineralogy of AGB-stars in galactic and extragalactic globular clusters using ground based IR-spectrometers and the Spitzer-IRS. We also discuss the atmospheric structure of nearby carbon-rich giants investigated with MIDI at the VLTI.
