Additional information

Greaves is the senior debris disc expert on the Herschel SAG6 Guaranteed Time team, with responsibilities including guiding target selection. Greaves' detailed knowledge of the beta Pic system from previous published submillimetre imaging, and her general expertise in such systems, was important in the choice of beta Pictoris as one of the six science targets. Greaves' focus on Solar analogues contributed to the emphasis here on the olivine composition and abundance being similar to the Kuiper Belt. She contributed to the drafting of the paper, particularly advising the student lead-author on what main-text technical detail was needed.
