Debris disks resulte from planetary activity such as colliding planetesimal (asteroidal) bodies or out-gassing comets, and therefore are clear evidence that planetary objects are present and provide a powerful approach to study the formation of planetary systems. The findings of protoplanetary disks and extrasolar planets around binary/multiple stars imply that most sites of planet formation are in binary systems. There is evidence from our previous work that the incidence of debris-disk-excess emission is elevated in binaries. We are expanding this result in another proposal to study old binary systems. In this proposal, we propose to obtain MIPS 24 and 70 micron photometry of the remaining 6 binary systems selected from the Wyatt et al. (2003) Lindroos sample to study debris disk properties around intermediate-age, main-sequence binary stars.
