The debris disk around gamma Doradus resolved with Herschel

Hannah Broekhoven-Fiene, Brenda C. Matthews, Grant M. Kennedy +11

We present observations of the debris disk around gamma Doradus, an F1V star, from the Herschel Key Programme DEBRIS (Disc Emission via Bias-free Reconnaissance in the Infrared/Sub…

A DEBRIS Disk Around The Planet Hosting M-star GJ581 Spatially Resolved with Herschel

J. -F. Lestrade, B. C. Matthews, B. Sibthorpe +17

Debris disks have been found primarily around intermediate and solar mass stars (spectral types A-K) but rarely around low mass M-type stars. We have spatially resolved a debris di…

Comet-like mineralogy of olivine crystals in an extrasolar proto-Kuiper belt

B. L. de Vries, B. Acke, J. A. D. L. Blommaert +20

Some planetary systems harbour debris disks containing planetesimals such as asteroids and comets. Collisions between such bodies produce small dust particles, the spectral feature…

Resolved Debris Discs Around A Stars in the Herschel DEBRIS Survey

Mark Booth, Grant Kennedy, Bruce Sibthorpe +12

The majority of debris discs discovered so far have only been detected through infrared excess emission above stellar photospheres. While disc properties can be inferred from unres…

Coplanar Circumbinary Debris Disks

G. M. Kennedy, M. C. Wyatt, B. Sibthorpe +3

We present resolved Herschel images of circumbinary debris disks in the alpha CrB (HD139006) and beta Tri (HD13161) systems. We find that both disks are consistent with being align…

Planetesimal Formation In Self-Gravitating Discs

P. G. Gibbons, W. K. M. Rice, G. R. Mamatsashvili

We study particle dynamics in local two-dimensional simulations of self-gravitating accretion discs with a simple cooling law. It is well known that the structure which arises in t…
