Gas and dust in the star-forming region rho Oph A: The dust opacity exponent beta and the gas-to-dust mass ratio g2d

R. Liseau, B. Larsson, T. Lunttila +6

We aim at determining the spatial distribution of the gas and dust in star-forming regions and address their relative abundances in quantitative terms. We also examine the dust opa…

The evolved circumbinary disk of AC Her: a radiative transfer, interferometric and mineralogical study

M. Hillen, B. L. de Vries, J. Menu +3

We aim to constrain the structure of the circumstellar material around the post-AGB binary and RV Tauri pulsator AC Her. We want to constrain the spatial distribution of the amorph…

Micron-sized forsterite grains in the pre-planetary nebula of IRAS 17150-3224 - Searching for clues on the mysterious evolution of massive AGB stars

B. L. de Vries, K. M. Maaskant, M. Min +3

We study the grain properties and location of the forsterite crystals in the circumstellar environment of the pre-planetary nebula (PPN) IRAS 17150-3224 in order to learn more abou…

A Tale of Two Stars: Interferometric Studies of Post-AGB Binaries

M. Hillen, J. Menu, B. de Vries +7

Binaries with circumbinary disks are commonly found among optically bright post-AGB stars. Although clearly linked to binary interaction processes, the formation, evolution and fat…

The Debris Disk of Solar Analogue Ceti: Herschel Observations and Dynamical Simulations of the Proposed Multiplanet System

S. M. Lawler, J. Di Francesco, G. M. Kennedy +16

Ceti is a nearby, mature G-type star very similar to our Sun, with a massive Kuiper Belt analogue (Greaves et al. 2004) and possible multiplanet system (Tuomi et al. 2013) that…

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…
