Scientific paper

We propose short observations of four globular clusters seen to contain relatively bright (L_X[0.5-7 keV]=5x10^33 to 10^35 ergs/s) low-luminosity X-ray sources by Einstein, ROSAT and/or Chandra HRC observations. These objects are either extremely bright cataclysmic variables in unusual accretion states, or quiescent low-mass X-ray binaries showing very low-level accretion activity. With 5 to 10-ksec snapshots, we will constrain the luminosities, spectra, positions, and nature of each object.
