Scientific paper

(Sub)Millimeter interferometry offers a way to obtain high angular resolution information on dust clumps and asymmetries in debris disks thought to be the dynamical signatures of planets. At these long wavelengths, contrast with the stellar photosphere is not a problem, and the emission is dominated by large particles with long resonant lifetimes that give rise to highly structured spatial distributions in the presence of planets. So far, only a handful of interferometric observations of debris disks have been made, largely because of instrumental sensitivity limitations. I will discuss the few results obtained to date, what we can expect soon from the CARMA, IRAM PdBI and SMA facilities, and the extraordinary promise of ALMA for the start of the next decade.
