Scientific paper

Observational searches show that in many clusters there is less than 1 solar mass of gas, orders of magnitude less than theoretical predictions. The recent discovery of multiple millisecond pulsars in globular clusters may resolve this long-standing problem. The relativistic wind from these pulsars is enough to drive gas from stellar mass loss out of the globular cluster.
