RATIONALE:

To bring together observers and theoreticians to exchange and discuss new ideas related to neutron star binaries or single neutron stars in a one day workshop. This meeting is hosted twice per year.

STRUCTURE OF MEETING:

Each meeting has three sessions. The first session (11:00-13:00) is dedicated to general news in the broad field of neutron stars and here new research results will be presented briefly. The afternoon sessions (14:00-17:45, with a coffee break) focus on a more specific topic, which will be different for each meeting. We aim for short presentations in the first session, and slightly longer presentations in the afternoon sessions. The main emphasis is on discussions.

TOPIC OF THIS MEETING:

The topic for the afternoon sessions is:   Supernovae and Formation of Neutron Stars
   - Electron Capture vs Small Iron Core-Collapse SNe
   - Accretion-Induced Collapse of ONeMg White Dwarfs
   - Ultra-stripped SNe
   - NS Kicks (magnitude and direction)
   - Properties of Young Neutron Stars
