Scientific paper

New low-luminosity X-ray sources have been discovered in NGC 6397 with
the ROSAT High Resolution Imager. These sources have a total number,
spatial distribution, and X-ray luminosities consistent with their being
CVs. The findings supports the hypothesis that the low-luminosity X-ray
sources in clusters are generally dominated by CVs.
