Abstract

Detailed ISOPHOT observations of the far infrared excess of α Lyrae (Vega) are presented. The data comprise photometry in the range 25µm to 200µm and high resolution 60µm scan data to compare with 60µm and 90µm oversampled maps. The dust disk around Vega is clearly resolved. In addition similar maps of HD98800, SAO226057, SAO186777 and α Piscis ustrinus (HR8728) are evaluated, resolving the disks of two Vega-like stars/candidates and providing upper limits for the size of the other two.
