The study of debris disks with SPICA [PDF]
, 2009 Debris disks are evidence that stars harbor reservoirs of dust-producing plantesimals on spatial scales similar the solar system. Debris disks present a wide range of sizes and structural features and there is growing evidence that, in some cases, they might be the result of the dynamical perturbations of a massive planet. Our solar system also harbors

Direct Detection of Dark Matter Debris Flows [PDF]
, 2012 Tidal stripping of dark matter from subhalos falling into the Milky Way produces narrow, cold tidal streams as well as more spatially extended "debris flows" in the form of shells, sheets, and plumes. Here we focus on the debris flow in the Via Lactea II simulation, and show that this incompletely phase-mixed material exhibits distinctive high velocity

Debris-flow generated tsunamis and their dependence on debris-flow dynamics
Coastal Engineering, 2020 Debris-flow generated tsunamis can be extremely dangerous for lakeside settlements and infrastructure. Debris-flow composition strongly affects debris-flow thickness and velocity, and therefore also the generated tsunami. This interaction is, however, poorly understood.

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Researchers investigate black phosphorous (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.

Debris-Influenced Sliding Laws and Basal Debris Balance [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1986 AbstractIn order to determine the effect of basal debris drag as a component in a sliding law, it is necessary to know the basal debris concentration. Does, for example, this debris concentration exhibit uniformity, in an average sense, across a valley?
