NuSTAR observations of M31: globular cluster candidates found to be Z sources

We present the results of Swift + NuSTAR observations of 4 bright globular cluster sources in M31. Three of these had previously been suggested to be black holes on the basis of their spectra. We show that all are well fit by models indicative of Z source natures for the sources. We also discuss some reasons why the long term light curves of these objects indicate that they are more likely to be neutron stars, and discuss the discrepancy between the empirical understanding of persistent sources and theoretical predictions.
