Double Neutron Star Systems and Natal Neutron Star Kicks
We study the four double neutron star systems found in the Galactic disk in terms of the orbital characteristics of their immediate progenitors and the natal kicks imparted to neutron stars. Analysis of the effect of the second supernova explosion on the orbital dynamics, combined with recent results from simulations of rapid accretion onto neutron stars lead us to conclude that the observed sy...
متن کاملPhysics of Neutron Star Kicks
It is no longer necessary to “sell” the idea of pulsar kicks, the notion that neutron stars receive a large velocity (a few hundred to a thousand km s) at birth. However, the origin of the kicks remains mysterious. We review the physics of different kick mechanisms, including hydrodynamically driven, neutrino and magnetically driven kicks.
متن کاملNeutron Star Kicks and Supernova Asymmetry
Observations over the last decade have shown that neutron stars receive a large kick velocity (of order a few hundred to a thousand km s−1) at birth. The physical origin of the kicks and the related supernova asymmetry is one of the central unsolved mysteries of supernova research. We review the physics of different kick mechanisms, including hydrodynamically driven, neutrino – magnetic field d...
متن کاملNeutron Star Kicks and Asymmetric Supernovae
Observational advances over the last decade have left little doubt that neutron stars received a large kick velocity (of order a few hundred to a thousand kms) at birth. The physical origin of the kicks and the related supernova asymmetry is one of the central unsolved mysteries of supernova research. We review the physics of different kick mechanisms, including hydrodynamically driven, neutrin...
متن کاملSupernova Kicks , Magnetic Braking , and Neutron – Star
We consider the formation of low–mass X–ray binaries containing accreting neutron stars via the helium–star supernova channel. The predicted relative number of short–period transients provides a sensitive test of the input physics in this process. We investigate the effect of varying mean kick velocities, orbital angular momentum loss efficiencies, and common envelope ejection efficiencies on t...
