JWST observations at 15 and 25.5 μm reveal a smooth, radially broad debris disk around γ Ophiuchi extending to 250 au, interpreted as a steady-state collisional cascade from a wide planetesimal belt with possible low-eccentricity planetary perturbation.

Secular perturbations from an inner planet create sharp, marching peaks and caustic discontinuities in a debris disk's azimuthally-averaged surface density, with radial locations following a predictable power-law pattern.
Spectral synthesis confirms β PsA is nearly pole-on (i≈4.75°) with rapid rotation (Ω/Ωcrit≈0.93), gravity darkening, and true luminosity 26.2 L⊙.
