A Review of AGB Mass Loss Imaging Techniques
Abstract
Circumstellar imaging across the electromagnetic spectrum allows us to derive fundamental diagnostics for the physics of mass loss in the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase. I review the current status of the field, with particular emphasis on the techniques that provide the strongest constraints for mass-loss modeling efforts.
