Libre de Bruxelles, CP 226, Boulevard du Triomphe, B-1050 Bruxelles, Belgium Received / Accepted Abstract. The present paper investigates the properties of the dust mass loss in stars populating the giant branch of the globular cluster 47 Tuc, by combining ISOCAM and DENIS data. Raster maps of 5 fields covering areas rang- ing from 4 × 4 to 15 × 15 arcmin2 at different distances from the center of the cluster have been obtained with ISOCAM at 11.5μm (LW10 filter). The covered fields in- clude most of the red variables known in this cluster. A detection threshold of about 0.2 mJy is achieved, allowing to detect giant stars at 11.5μm all the way down to the horizontal branch. No dust-enshrouded asymptotic giant branch stars have been found in the observed fields, con- trary to the situation encountered in LMC/SMC globular clusters with larger turnoff masses. The color index [12]? [2] (based on the ISO 11.5 μm flux and on the DENIS Ks magnitude) is used as a diagnostic of dust emission (and hence dust mass loss). Its evolution with luminosity along the giant branch reveals that dust mass loss is only present in V3 (the only cluster Mira vari- able observed in the present study) and in V18, a star pre- senting intermittent variability. This conclusion confirms the importance of stellar pulsations in the dust formation and ensuing mass loss.
