Formation and evolution of compact binaries in globular clusters - I. Binaries with white dwarfs
In this paper, the first of a series, we study the stellar dynamical and evolutionary processes leading to the formation of compact binaries containing white dwarfs (WDs) in dense globular clusters (GCs). We examine the processes leading to the creation of X-ray binaries such as cataclysmic variables (CVs) and AM …
