From 36 neutron-star X-ray binaries, the best-fitting natal kick model is a bimodal Maxwellian with sigma=320 km/s for core-collapse supernovae and sigma=80 km/s for electron-capture supernovae.

abstract
In this invited talk at the 41st Li\`ege International Astrophysical Colloquium on "The eventful life of massive star multiples", I reviewed some aspects of our current understanding of neutron stars and black holes as end products of stellar evolution as well as the evolutionary paths leading to the formation of high-mass X-ray binaries.

On Neutron Star Natal Kicks in High-Mass X-Ray Binaries: Insights from Population Synthesis
From 36 neutron-star X-ray binaries, the best-fitting natal kick model is a bimodal Maxwellian with sigma=320 km/s for core-collapse supernovae and sigma=80 km/s for electron-capture supernovae.
