The infrared excess has been interpreted as a dust disk left over from the formation of the star. Several other main sequence stars show a similar excess in their IRAS fluxes. Beta Pic (HR2020) has been the only star around which the dust disk has been detected at shorter wavelengths and studied, and this disk is seen edge-on. ISOPHOT gives us the opportunity to investigate the structure of the dust disks around several of these stars, using multi-aperture and mapping observations, and to investigate deviations of the energy distribution from that expected from a black-body with multi-filter observations. Spectra will be taken of all the stars, to look for dust features. OBSERVATION SUMMARY The proposal is split into three parts, this is part 3. The times used in this part of the proposal are calculated using the manual. A 5 x 5 raster map will be performed with PHT32, using an oversampling factor of 2, which results in a map area 258" x 138" being covered. An integration time of 2 seconds/chopper plateau is used, which means that the time per raster position is 26 seconds (13 chopper steps/raster position). <=== scientific_justification ===> Time distribution for autumn launch targets: Team top 40% second 30% last 30% PHT : 46349 0 0 Time distribution for spring launch targets: Team top 40% second 30% last 30% PHT : 46733 0 0 <=== autumn_launch_targets ===> 1,"PHT32",1.0,"N","HR7001",18.615611,+38.783611,2000,0.257,0.285,2155,0 2,"PHT32",1.0,"N","HD98800",11.326667,-24.500556,1950,-0.515,-0.119,2155,0 <=== spring_launch_targets ===> 1,"PHT32",1.0,"N","HR2020",05.788083,-51.066389,2000,0.008,0.087,2155,0 2,"PHT32",1.0,"N","HD98800",11.326667,-24.500556,1950,-0.515,-0.119,2155,0
