Abstract

We carried out Radiative Transfer (RT) calculations to investigate the properties of disks around young, Very Low Mass Objects (VLMOs) and Brown Dwarfs (BDs). We explore the possibility of resolving such disks in the mid-infrared with MIDI depending on the parameters: source distance and declination, disk inclination and extension.
