Description
The expected mass loss rates from horizontal branch (HB) and red giant
branch models are investigated. The expected dependence of those rates
on luminosity, metallicity, helium content, giant mass, and HB
morphology is discussed. For an HB distribution depending on
metallicity, the values found for the fitting factors in the Reimers
parameterization are in good agreement with those derived independently
for Population I stars.
