We present a new model for low-luminosity X-ray sources in globular clusters, with L_x < 10^34 erg/s. The model we propose is that of a single neutron star accreting from cluster gas that has accumulated as a natural product of stellar evolution. An analytic luminosity function is derived under the assumption that the speed distribution of neutron stars in the central region of a cluster is described by a Maxwellian, and that the density and temperature of the gas are uniform. Predictions of the model and implications for the gas content of globular clusters are discussed.

Bondi accretion disk luminosity around neutral and charged Simpson-Visser spacetimes
Bondi accretion is computed in Simpson-Visser and charged Simpson-Visser spacetimes, but the reported critical (sonic) radii are not supported by the paper's own equations.
