    I noticed that this object is a white dwarf (at least white dwarf candidate). When searching for references in SIMBAD, then there was one which was about searching for debris disks around white dwarfs and statistical results. Does anyone have some more information on it?

    It doesn't look like a star, at least in the image,( is the first from the top), also the SED is weird for a star and the image is not very rounded, but I read the same reference in SIMBAD: http://cdsbib.u-strasbg.fr/cgi-bin/cdsbib?2011MNRAS.417.1210G

    We can ask John about this, he is the expert in White Dwarfs
