A 10 $\mathsf{\mu}$m spectroscopic survey of Herbig Ae star disks: Grain growth and crystallization
A 10 $\mathsf{\mu}$m spectroscopic survey of Herbig Ae star disks: Grain growth and crystallization
We present spectroscopic observations of a large sample of Herbig Ae stars in the 10 μm spectral region. We perform compositional fits of the spectra based on properties of homogeneous as well as inhomogeneous spherical particles, and derive the mineralogy and typical grain sizes of the dust responsible for the …
