          Abstract

          Debris disks are intimately linked to planetary system evolution since the rocky material surrounding the host stars is due to secondary generation from the collisions of planetesimals. With the conclusion and lack of future large scale infrared excess survey missions, it is time to summarize the history of using excess emission in the infrared as a tracer of debris. We have compiled a catalog of infrared excess stars from peer reviewed articles and performed an extensive search for new debris disks by cross correlating the Tycho 2 and AllWISE catalogs. This study will examine each debris disk stars parameters obtained through high resolution spectroscopy at various facilities. We will maintain a webpage devoted to these infrared excess sources and provide various resources related to our catalog creation, SED fitting, and data reduction.
