Contents

Bright, ultracompact X-ray binaries observed in dense star clusters, such as Galactic globular clusters, must have formed relatively recently, since their lifetimes as persistent bright sources are short (e.g., ~10^8 yr above 10^36 erg/s for a 1.4 Msun neutron star accreting from a degenerate helium companion with an initial mass of ~0.2 Msun). The...
