| Abstract: |
Research in Utrecht on compact stars in globular clusters was
triggered by the discovery by Hertz & Grindlay (1983) of
low-luminosity X-ray sources in globular clusters. It started with
theoretical considerations on the nature, formation and evolution
of these sources, to be combined later with extensive observational
programmes with ROSAT, Chandra and HST. |
