Neutron Star Kicks plus Rockets as a Mechanism for Forming Wide Low-eccentricity Neutron Star Binaries

Recent neutron star surface observations corroborate a long-standing theory that neutron stars may be accelerated over extended periods after their birth. We analyze how these prolonged rocket-like accelerations, combined with rapid birth kicks, impact binary orbits. We find that even a small contri...
