Characterizing Terrestrial Planet Formation with Young Debris Disks

This work is focused on the formation of terrestrial planets. To determine the behavior of planetary debris disks in the era of terrestrial planet formation, first we study 15 young clusters and associations with ages up to ~40 Myr. By adopting a threshold in relative excess at the phenomenological...
