Calcium detected in the photosphere of LP 475-242, which may indicate that it has a planetary system.

This title seems something tricky just to catch attention. Rolling Eyes

Moreover it is not the first case of a white dwarf whose spectrum could hint there is planetary material or even some kind of planetary object somewhere orbiting the stellar remnant, though actually not detected.

Main point seems to be to do with the cluster environment: still not many planets known in open clusters (or globulars for that matter).
