Abstract: A supernova explosion announces the spectacular death of a massive star. The remnant is usually a neutron star, tiny and dense, and often spinning rapidly and travelling at high speed through the Galaxy. A provocative new thesis forms a bridge between the physics of supernovae and the spin and velocity of neutron stars.
