Abstract

This thesis presents a theoretical study on the statistical properties of binary neutron stars, by means of synthetic stellar populations simulated with the SEVN code. The work focuses on the impact that electron-capture supernovae and momentum-conserving natal kicks have on the properties of these binary systems.
