Abstract

In conjunction with an extensive ground-based monitoring program of 32 oxygen-rich Mira variables, a subset of this sample has been monitored with phase using ISO's Short Wavelength Spectrometer (ISOSWS) and ground-based mid-infrared spectrometers. Some of the six sources will be presented here in 2.5–45 μm ISOSWS spectra and 7.5–13.5 μm ground-based spectra using CGS3. Discussion of the spectral features of SiO, CO, H2O, and silicates will be presented. These data are considered in the context of recent demonstrations of variations in the spectral features with phase of the Miras.
