Dust around Herbig Ae/Be Stars: Porous, Cometary-like Grains? ... This brings up the question, which we try to answer here, of how the grain porosity affects the observational manifestations of the dust shells of HAeBe stars: the excess infrared emission, anomalous extinction in the ultraviolet, and the peculiar behaviour of colour indices and linear polarization during deep brightness minima observed for about 25% of HAeBe stars (UX Ori, WW Vul, etc). ...
