Echelle orders containing H{alpha} and CaII H&amp;K are used to identify emission and line asymmetries characterizing motions in the extended atmospheres. Emission in H{alpha} is detected to a luminosity of log(L/L_{sun}_)=2.36, in this very metal-deficient cluster, comparable to other studies, suggesting that the appearance of emission wings is independent of stellar metallicity. The faintest stars showing H{alpha} emission appear to lie on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) in M15. A line-bisector technique for H{alpha} reveals outflowing velocities in all stars brighter than log(L/L_{sun}_)=2.5, and this outflow velocity increases with stellar luminosity, indicating the mass outflow increases smoothly with luminosity. Many stars lying low on the AGB show exceptionally high outflow velocities (up to 10-15km/s) and more velocity variability (up to 6-8km/s) than red giant branch (RGB) stars of similar apparent magnitude. High velocities in M15 may be related to the low cluster metallicity. Dusty stars identified from Spitzer Space Telescope infrared photometry as AGB stars are confirmed as cluster members by radial velocity measurements, yet their H{alpha} profiles are similar to those of RGB stars without dust. If substantial mass loss creates the circumstellar shell responsible for infrared emission, such mass loss must be episodic.</description><source format="bibcode">2008AJ....135.1117M</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/135/1117</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/137/4282">J/AJ/137/4282 : Red giant stars in clusters.
