The β Pictoris debris disk is on average 1.5 times thicker vertically in the mid-infrared than at millimeter wavelengths, with a relatively constant scale height across radius and warping consistent with secular perturbations from inner giant planets.

Simulations of solar analogues in stellar clusters demonstrate that extended debris disks perturbed by stellar encounters form Oort cloud-like structures and interstellar comets, while compact disks produce Kuiper-belt analogues.

The multi-wavelength vertical structure of the archetypal $\beta$ Pictoris debris disk
The β Pictoris debris disk is on average 1.5 times thicker vertically in the mid-infrared than at millimeter wavelengths, with a relatively constant scale height across radius and warping consistent with secular perturbations from inner giant planets.

Implications for the formation of Oort cloud-like structures and interstellar comets in dense environments
Simulations of solar analogues in stellar clusters demonstrate that extended debris disks perturbed by stellar encounters form Oort cloud-like structures and interstellar comets, while compact disks produce Kuiper-belt analogues.
