Inner mean-motion resonances with eccentric planets: a possible origin for exozodiacal dust clouds

High levels of dust have been detected in the immediate vicinity of many stars, both young and old. A promising scenario to explain the presence of this short-lived dust is that these analogues to the zodiacal cloud (or exozodis) are refilled in situ through cometary activity and sublimation.
