An astrometric search for planets in debris disk systems

Elisabeth M. Penderghast, Benjamin C. Bromley, Scott J. Kenyon +1

Debris disks are likely created and sculpted by planetary bodies in the orbital space they share. The properties of these disks, including mass, orbital extent, and morphology, can…
