Bow Shocks in Globular Clusters?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Abstract
It has been suggested that diffuse X-ray sources observed in globular clusters may arise in bow shocks formed by the interaction of intracluster gas with a tenuous halo medium. This paper presents a study both of the cluster space motions and of the energetics of any possible bow shocks which would seem to rule out this hypothesis.
