The correlation between metallicity and debris disk mass
A Gáspár, GH Rieke, N Ballering - The Astrophysical Journal, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We find that the initial dust masses in planetary debris disks are correlated with the
metallicities of their central stars. We compiled a large sample of systems, including Spitzer …
