Abundance Pattern Analysis of Planet-hosting and Debris-disk Stars

Abstract: About 16 % of the main-sequence solar-like stars are surrounded by dusty debris disks (DD). These disks are the detritus of small bodies collisions and their presence is a very strong signpost of planet formation. One of the most interesting characteristics of stars hosting a giant planet is a direct relationship between metallicity and probability of planet formation, which was found to increase with stellar metallicity Gonzalez (1997). Instead, the small planets would form around host stars (HS) with a wide range of metallicities (Buchhave et al. 2012). On the other hand the presence of debris disks is uncorrelated with metallicity (Chavero et al. 2006, Greaves et al. 2006, Maldonado et al. 2012).
