Impact of discontinuous grain size distributions on the spectral energy distribution of debris disks
M. Kim,

Abstract:The collisional evolution of debris disks is expected to cause the characteristic wavy pattern, that is, an under- or overabundance of particles of specific sizes, of grain size distributions. This perturbed grain size distribution potentially leaves characteristic patterns in the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the disk system. We aim to quantify and understand the specific influence of discontinuous particle size distributions on the appearance of debris disks. For this purpose, we considered dust emis… Show more
