TL;DR: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has validated and made publicly available its First Data Release as discussed by the authors, which consists of 2099 deg2 of five-band (u, g, r, i, z) imaging data, 186,240 spectra of galaxies, quasars, stars and calibrating blank sky patches selected over 1360 deg 2 of this area.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present conclusive observational evidence of a link between the number of close binaries observed in X-rays in a globular cluster and the stellar encounter rate of the cluster, and make an estimate of the total number of LMXBs in globular clusters in our Galaxy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present conclusive observational evidence for a link between the number of close binaries observed in X-rays in a globular cluster and the stellar encounter rate of the cluster.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented 36 cataclysmic variables and one possible symbiotic star from Sloan spectra obtained during 2002, of which 34 are new discoveries, two are known dwarf novae (BC UMa and KS UMa), and one is a known Cataclysmic variable identified from the Two-Degree Field survey.

TL;DR: In this article, Chandra X-Ray Observatory ACIS-S3 imaging observation of the globular cluster NGC 6752 is reported, where the authors detect six X-ray sources within the 105 core radius and 13 more within the 115'' half-mass radius.
