A new code to study structures in collisionally active, perturbed debris discs. Application to binaries
Philippe Thebault
Debris discs are traditionally studied using two distinct types of numerical models: statistical particle-in-a-box codes to study their collisional and size distribution evolution,…
Herschel discovery of a new class of cold, faint debris discs
C. Eiroa, J. P. Marshall, A. Mora +25
We present Herschel PACS 100 and 160 micron observations of the solar-type stars alpha Men, HD 88230 and HD 210277, which form part of the FGK stars sample of the Herschel Open Tim…
Spitzer Evidence for a Late Heavy Bombardment and the Formation of Urelites in η Corvi at ~1 Gyr
C. M. Lisse, M. C. Wyatt, C. H. Chen +7
We have analyzed Spitzer and NASA/IRTF 2 - 35 \mum spectra of the warm, ~350 K circumstellar dust around the nearby MS star η Corvi (F2V, 1.4 \pm 0.3 Gyr). The spectra show clear e…
On how the optical depth tunes the effects of ISM neutral atom flow on debris disks
Francesco Marzari, Philippe Thebault
The flux of ISM neutral atoms surrounding stars and their environment affects the motion of dust particles in debris disks, causing a significant dynamical evolution. Large values…
Planet Formation In Highly Inclined Binary Systems I. Planetesimals Jump Inwards And Pile Up
Ji-Wei Xie, Matthew Payne, Philippe Thebault +2
Most detected planet-bearing binaries are in wide orbits, for which a high inclination, , between the binary orbital plane and the plane of the planetary disk around the prima…
Against all odds? Forming the planet of the HD196885 binary
Philippe Thebault
HD196885Ab is the most "extreme" planet-in-a-binary discovered to date, whose orbit places it at the limit for orbital stability. The presence of a planet in such a highly perturbe…
