Scientific paper

The observational evidence for dusty discs around main sequence stars is reviewed, and the discs discussed in terms of their fractional luminosity Ldust/L*. New values of this quantity indicate that a substantial range (10-5-0.5) exists among Vega-excess stars. The observational requirements for determining dust masses are outlined. Details of a modelling method developed by the authors are given, and results presented. It is shown that photometry over a wide range of wavelengths as well as infrared spectroscopy are needed in order to constrain the models uniquely.
