Abstract
Globular clusters house a population of compact binariesthat will be interesting gravitational wave sources for LISA. We provideestimates for the numbers of sources of several categories and discussthe sensitivity of LISA to detecting these sources. The estimated totalnumber of detectable sources ranges from ~10 to ~103with gravitational wave frequencies above 1 mHz. These sources aretypically undetectable by any other means and thus offer an opportunityfor doing true gravitational-wave astronomy. The detection of thesesources would provide information about both binary star evolution andthe dynamics of globular clusters.
