Description we propose to study circumstellar envelopes in the newly discovered dwarf spheroidal sgr. it is the nearest extra-galactic system (half the distance to the lmc) and is the only old, metal-poor stellar population where we can study in detail the mass-loss process. the relatively simple star-formation and chemical history will allow us to measure the mass-loss efficiency for a narrow range in metallicity and stellar age, and will provide a crucial comparison sample compared to the younger, more metal-rich magellanic clouds. we will carry out mid-infrared photometry to detect circumstellar envelopes and measure the mass-loss rate. we will also observe the two planetary nebulae with sws, to measure accurate abundances. both planetary nebulae in sgr have wc-like central stars, indicating an unexpected difference in stellar population with the galactic halo.

Mission Description The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was the worlds first true orbiting infrared observatory. Equipped with four highly-sophisticated and versatile scientific instruments, it was launched by Ariane in November 1995 and provided astronomers world-wide with a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for a detailed exploration of the Universe at infrared wavelengths.
