Resumen

GARCIA, L.  y  GOMEZ, M.. Modeling of debris disks in single and binary stars. Rev. mex. astron. astrofis [online]. 2016, vol.52, n.2, pp.357-374. ISSN 0185-1101.

Infrared space observatories such as Spitzer and Herschel have allowed the detection of likely analogs to the Kuiper Belt in single as well as binary systems. The aim of this work is to characterize debris disks in single and binary stars and to identify features shared by the disks in both types of systems, as well as possible differences. We compiled a sample of 25 single and 14 binary stars (ages > 100 Myr) with flux measurements at λ > 100 µm and evidence of infrared excesses attributed to the presence of debris disks. Then, we constructed and modeled the observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs), and compared the parameters of the disks of both samples. Both types of disks are relatively free of dust in the inner region (< 3-5 AU) and extend beyond 100 AU. No significant differences in the mass and dust size distributions of both samples are found.

Palabras llave : binaries: general; Kuiper belt: general; protoplanetary disks; stars: solar-type; zodiacal dust.
