Abstract:

In this talk, I would like discuss the possibilities of a different class of neutron star binaries which are observed. Double neutron star binaries and NS-white dwarf binaries have been observed in pulsar observation. However the neutron star masses in two different classes of NS binaries require the understanding on the formation and evolution of neutron star binaries. If we allow supercritical accretion, there exist a possibility of forming NS binaries with higher mass neutron star (larger than 2 solar mass) or black hole companion. This is a talk presented in 4th Korea-Japan Workshop on KAGRA at Osaka University.
