Debris disks are faint disks surrounding main-sequence stars. Their occurrence at ages beyond the typical dissipation time scales of YSO disks suggests that they are secondary in nature, being refurbished by the collisions of bodies of not-so-well known ...

Searching for debris disks around isolated pulsars
Different pieces of observational evidence suggest the existence of disks around isolated neutron stars. Such disks could be formed from supernova fallback when neutron stars are born in core-collapse supernova explosions.

Five New Post-main-sequence Debris Disks with Gaseous Emission [PDF]
Observations of debris disks, the products of the collisional evolution of rocky planetesimals, can be used to trace planetary activity across a wide range of stellar types.

Debris disks around main-sequence stars
'Debris disks' are collections of small bodies around stars, such as the Asteroid Belt and Kuiper Belt in our Solar System. These disks are composed of objects smaller than planets, including asteroids, comets, dust, and dwarf planets.

Molecular Gas in Debris Disks around Young A-type Stars
According to the current paradigm of circumstellar disk evolution, gas-rich primordial disks evolve into gas-poor debris disks that are composed of second-generation dust.

From Protoplanetary to Debris Disks
2002We discuss the physical difference between protoplanetary and debris (Vega-like) disks and consider the course of evolution which leads from the first to the latter. We discuss a simple evolutionary model for debris disks and predict 20μm fluxes for future observations with VISIR.

Giant Impacts and Debris Disks
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012AbstractDuring the last stage of terrestrial planet formation, Mars-sized protoplanets often collides with each other. Our high-resolution impact simulations show that such giant impacts produce a significant amount of fragments within the terrestrial planet region. These ejected fragments form a hot debris disk around the central star.

Planetary Perturbers in Debris Disks
Earth, Moon, and Planets, 2003Neptune dominates the dynamics of the Kuiper Belt. By examining images of debris disks around other stars, we may be able to infer what kinds of planets shape the outer edges of other planetary systems. The last few years have seen a burst of progress in the modeling of azimuthal structures in debris disks created by planetary perturbers; new models ...
