High Resolution VLBI Astrometry of pulsar scintillation screens with the Transform

Daniel Baker, Walter Brisken, Marten H. van Kerkwijk +2

The recent development of $θ\mhyphenθ$ techniques in pulsar scintillometry has opened the door for new high resolution imaging techniques of the scattering medium. By solving the p…

Modelling the KIC8462852 light curves: compatibility of the dips and secular dimming with an exocomet interpretation

M. C. Wyatt, R. van Lieshout, G. M. Kennedy +1

This paper shows how the dips and secular dimming in the KIC8462852 light curve can originate in circumstellar material distributed around a single elliptical orbit (e.g., exocomet…

Disintegrating Rocky Exoplanets

Rik van Lieshout, Saul Rappaport

We discuss a new class of exoplanets that appear to be emitting a tail of dusty effluents. These disintegrating planets are found close to their host stars and have very hot, and l…

Exozodiacal clouds: Hot and warm dust around main sequence stars

Quentin Kral, Alexander V. Krivov, Denis Defrere +7

A warm/hot dust component (at temperature 300K) has been detected around 20% of stars. This component is called "exozodiacal dust" as it presents similarities with the z…

Infrared observations of white dwarfs and the implications for the accretion of dusty planetary material

Amy Bonsor, Jay Farihi, Mark C. Wyatt +1

Infrared excesses around metal polluted white dwarfs have been associated with the accretion of dusty, planetary material. This work analyses the available infrared data for an unb…

Dusty tails of evaporating exoplanets. II. Physical modelling of the KIC 12557548b light curve

R. van Lieshout, M. Min, C. Dominik +7

Evaporating rocky exoplanets, such as KIC 12557548b, eject large amounts of dust grains, which can trail the planet in a comet-like tail. When such objects occult their host star,…
