Properties of Milky Way globular clusters associated with X-ray sources

Nedialkov, Petko; Botev, Svetoslav; Petrov, Georgi P.

The integral X-ray luminosities of 89 Milky Way Globular Clusters within 2 core radii r_c have been estimated using the average X-ray fluxes of individual sources detected in the recent Chandra, XMM-Newton or Swift missions. The X-ray luminosity function is constructed and a limit luminosity L_X([0.5-7] keV) = 10^33.65
