Evolution of Debris Disks
TLDR
In this article, a review describes the theoretical framework within which debris disk evolution takes place and shows how that framework has been constrained by observations, including infrared photometry of large numbers of debris disks, providing snapshots of the dust present at different evolutionary phases.Abstract:
Circumstellar dust exists around several hundred main sequence stars. For the youngest stars, that dust could be a remnant of the protoplanetary disk. Mostly it is inferred to be continuously replenished through collisions between planetesimals in belts analogous to the Solar System’s asteroid and Kuiper belts, or in collisions between growing protoplanets. The evolution of a star’s debris disk is indicative of the evolution of its planetesimal belts and may be influenced by planet formation processes, which can continue throughout the first gigayear as the planetary system settles to a stable configuration and planets form at large radii. Evidence for that evolution comes from infrared photometry of large numbers of debris disks, providing snapshots of the dust present at different evolutionary phases, as well as from images of debris disk structure. This review describes the theoretical framework within which debris disk evolution takes place and shows how that framework has been constrained by observations.read more

Sensitive Identification of Nearby Debris Disks via Precise Calibration of WISE Data
TL;DR: In this article, the infrared excess sources around main-sequence Hipparcos stars within 75pc of WISE photospheric colors and removal of non-trivial false-positive sources are responsible for high confidence (>99.5%) of detections.

Serpentinization in the thermal evolution of icy Kuiper belt objects in the early Solar system
TL;DR: In this article , an improved algorithm is presented to model the serpentinization process in planetesimals in the early Solar system. But the model is based on the model by Gobi & Kereszturi 2017, and contains improvements in the consideration of heat capacities and lithospheric pressure, and in the calculation of the amount of interfacial water.
