Description

We present a Chandra survey of LMXBs in 24 early-type galaxies. Correcting for detection incompleteness, the X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of each galaxy is consistent with a power law with negative logarithmic differential slope, {beta}~2.0. However, {beta} strongly correlates with incompleteness, indicating the XLF flattens at low-L_X_. Although the XLFs are similar, we find evidence of some variation between galaxies. The high-L_X_ XLF slope does not correlate with age, but may correlate with [{alpha}/Fe]. Considering only LMXBs with L_X_>10^37^ergs/s, matching the LMXBs with globular clusters (GCs) identified in HST observations of 19 of the galaxies, we find the probability a GC hosts an LMXB is proportional to L^{alpha}^_GC_Z^{gamma}^_Fe_ where {alpha}=1.01+/-0.19 and {gamma}=0.33+/-0.11. The spatial distribution of LMXBs resembles that of GCs, and the specific frequency of LMXBs is proportional to the GC specific luminosity, consistent with the hypothesis that all LMXBs form in GCs.
