Scientific paper

A series of numerical experiments to simulate the evolution of massive binary systems is described. The simulations yielded an estimate of 70-10 km/s for the kick velocity of a neutron star following the collapse of a normal star. It is demonstrated that kick velocity can be used as a measure of the mean anisotropy of the entire collapse process. Some of the physical factors which might produce such an anisotropy are discussed in detail.
