Paper: Gas in Debris Disks

Abstract: We consider current observations of gas within debris disks systems such as β Pic. While there is clearly some gas present, the evidence for molecular hydrogen is, at best, weak. It is possible that these systems have more mass in dust than in gas-very different from the interstellar dark clouds from which stars form, but similar to comets.
