Ejection of material --"Jurads" -- from post main sequence planetary systems

Hansen, Brad · Zuckerman, Ben

Original · EN

We show that the rate of pollution of white dwarfs by asteroidal material implies a concomitant rate of material ejection that can contribute significantly to the population of interstellar minor bodies. We note also that the irradiation during post main sequence evolution implies that much of this ejected material may lose volatiles, providing a rationale for the curious properties of the recently discovered interstellar object Oumuamua.
