Abstract

We present a collection of classified X-ray sources in Globular Clusters (GCs) observed by the Chandra X-ray Observatory, including active binaries, cataclysmic variables, millisecond pulsars, and low-mass X-ray binaries. We cross-match the most accurate published positions from multiwavelength observations of these sources to the Chandra Source Catalog Release 2.1, and the HST UV Globular Cluster Survey to extract their multiwavelength properties. The data set can be accessed via an interactive website (https://home.gwu.edu/~kargaltsev/XCLASS_GC) and used as a training data set for machine-learning classification of unidentified X-ray sources in GCs.
