Vega-like stars
Abstract
The results on Vega-like stars obtained with ISO are discussed. We find that the incidence of Vega-like disks is approximately 21% on average, with some dependency upon the spectral type. While young stars do more frequently show disks than old stars, there is no clear trend in the amount of dust seen at different ages. We also discuss the discovery of a Vega-like disk associated with ρ1Cnc, a star which is know to be orbited by a planet. Finally we show preliminary results on HD 207129, an old G star with a very prominent IR excess.
