Natal kicks of compact objects

Abstract

When compact objects - neutron stars and black holes - are formed in a supernova explosion, they may receive a high velocity at formation, which may reach or even exceed 1000 km s-1 for neutron stars and hundreds of km s-1 for black holes. The origin of the velocity kick is intimately related to supernova physics. A better understanding of kick properties from astronomical observations will shed light on the unsolved problems of these explosions, such as the exact conditions leading to exotic electron capture and ultra-stripped supernovae. Kick velocities are profoundly important in several areas of astrophysics. Being a result of supernova explosions, the kick velocity distribution must be explained in the framework of the supernova mechanism. The kick magnitudes and directions influence many topics related to binary systems, including the rate of compact object coalescences observable through gravitational waves. Moreover, knowledge of the kick velocity distribution is significant in predicting future observational results and their interpretation. For example, it is expected that the Roman space telescope will discover many microlensing events related to neutron stars and black holes; accurate estimates of the number of observable microlensing events require precise kinematic properties of these compact objects.
