Hot exozodis: cometary supply without trapping is unlikely to be the mechanism

Abstract: Excess near-infrared emission is detected around one fifth of main-sequence stars, but its nature is a mystery. These excesses are interpreted as thermal emission from populations of small, hot dust very close to their stars (‘hot exozodis’), but such grains should rapidly sublimate or be blown out of the system. To date, no model has fully explained this phenomenon. One mechanism commonly suggested in the literature is cometary supply, where star-grazing comets deposit dust close to the star, replenishing los… Show more

“…The persistence of this hot dust despite its short dynamical lifetime has led Marino et al (2017) and Marino et al (2018) to suggest cometary material is passed by a "conveyor-belt" of one or more planets from the outer disk to the inner disk. This interpretation is sufficiently dynamically favored that it may explain hot dust populations in many other systems, but remains controversial (Pearce et al 2022). AMI interferometry of η Crv in GO 1242 (simulated in Figure 3) will probe the spatial scales in between the under-resolved LBTI and over-resolved VLTI to make the first map of the hot inner disk.…”
