AbstractIn order to understand the progenitor of rotation powered pulsars, we compare them with High-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) pulsars, (or X-ray pulsars), in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The plot of period period vs. period derivative shows that isolated neutron stars could be evolved from HMXBs. The pulsars with long spin period might spin up to 0.001-1 s. The mechanism is a third-body interaction that detaches the donor, leaving an isolated, small period neutron star behind.

NGC 300 ULX1 is a newly identified ultra-luminous X-ray pulsar. The system is associated with the supernova impostor SN 2010da that was later classified as a possible supergiant Be X-ray binary. In this work we report on the spin period evolution of the neutron star based on all the currently available X-ray observations of the system. We argue that the X-ray luminosity of the system has remained almost constant since 2010, at a level above ten times the Eddington limit. Moreover, we find evidence that the spin period of the neutron star evolved from ∼126 s down to ∼18 s within a period of about 4 years. We explain this unprecedented spin evolution in terms of the standard accretion torque theory. An intriguing consequence for NGC 300 ULX1 is that a neutron star spin reversal should have occurred a few years after the SN 2010da event.
