Evolution of debris disks
MC Wyatt - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2008 - annualreviews.org
Circumstellar dust exists around several hundred main sequence stars. For the youngest
stars, that dust could be a remnant of the protoplanetary disk. Mostly it is inferred to be …

A planetesimal orbiting within the debris disc around a white dwarf star
Many white dwarf stars show signs of having accreted smaller bodies, implying that they
may host planetary systems. A small number of these systems contain gaseous debris discs …

Predictions for the secondary CO, C and O gas content of debris discs from the destruction of volatile-rich planetesimals
This paper uses observations of dusty debris discs, including a growing number of gas
detections in these systems, to test our understanding of the origin and evolution of this …

Debris disks: seeing dust, thinking of planetesimals and planets
AV Krivov - Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
Debris disks are optically thin, almost gas-free dusty disks observed around a significant
fraction of main-sequence stars older than about 10 Myr. Since the circumstellar dust is short …
