Scientific paper

Our program to investigate the nature of the dim X-ray sources in globular clusters (GCs), proposed to be various binaries, has revealed two quiescent X-ray binaries with a neutron star primary (qNSs). Examining 8 other GCs, indicates that a correlation exists between the collision rate and the number of qNSs. We wish to observe 4 GCs, which should contain varying numbers of qNS, to try to verify the relation, which has implications for the formation and evolution of GCs. Using the well-determined neutron star parameters will also help exclude many possible equations of state. Further, we will continue to characterize the content of GCs, as it is of interest for theories of binary production and evolution, and the evolution and survival of GCs.
