Relativistic Binaries in Globular Clusters [PDF]
Living Reviews in Relativity, 2013 Galactic globular clusters are old, dense star systems typically containing 10^4 – 10^6 stars. As an old population of stars, globular clusters contain many collapsed and degenerate objects. As a dense population of stars, globular clusters are the scene

Relativistic Binaries in Globular Clusters [PDF]
Living Reviews in Relativity, 2006 The galactic population of globular clusters are old, dense star systems, with a typical cluster containing 10^4 - 10^7 stars. As an old population of stars, globular clusters contain many collapsed and degenerate objects. As a dense population of stars,

Gamma-ray Emission from Globular Clusters [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2016 Over the last few years, the data obtained using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has provided new insights on high-energy processes in globular clusters, particularly those involving compact objects such as ...

On the density and surface brightness profiles in globular star clusters [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2007 A model of mass distribution, applicable to globular star clusters and proposed earlier, is reconsidered. It is shown that it can be related to the well-known Plummer-Schuster formula, and the equations yielding its dimensionless parameters are given ...

RR Lyrae and Type II Cepheid Variables in Globular Clusters: Optical and Infrared Properties
Universe, 2022 Globular clusters are both primary fossils of galactic evolution and formation and are ideal laboratories for constraining the evolution of low-mass and metal-poor stars.

Future of the General Catalogue of Variable Stars from the Experience of Recent Name-lists
Open Astronomy, 2021 We briefly outline the history of the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) and the New Catalogue of Suspected Variable Stars (NSV catalogue). Recently, we have completed a revision of the NSV catalogue.

The Global Mass Functions of 35 Galactic globular clusters: II. Clues on the Initial Mass Function and Black Hole Retention Fraction [PDF]
, 2017 In this paper we compare the mass function slopes of Galactic globular clusters recently determined by Sollima & Baumgardt (2017) with a set of dedicated N-body simulations of star clusters containing between 65,000 to 200,000 stars.
