Scientific paper

The gamma-ray luminosity of globular clusters is estimated using a model in which they harbor large numbers of millisecond pulsars. An upper limit obtained by the Cos-B satellite on the gamma-ray emission from 47 Tucanae, which contains at least 10 millisecond pulsars, is too large to constrain the model presented here, but the estimated luminosities are high enough to be detectable by the recently launched Gamma Ray Observatory.
