Close encounters between stars and/or binaries in globular clusters play a dominant role in the evolution of the cluster as a whole, and also lead to the formation of exotic binaries. The study of exotic binaries and their progeny thus helps in understanding the processes that drive the cluster evolution. A neutron star can end up in a binary by tidal capture or by taking the place of a star in a pre-existing binary. We review how the detailed information provided by radio, X-ray and optical observations provide clues to the relative importance of various processes like direct collisions, tidal capture, and binary/single-star exchange encounters.
