Distribution in the (Pb, e)-plane of eMSPs simulated via the RD-AIC scenario. The red circle represents PSR J0955−6150. The black solid star is the result of a symmetric (w = 0) AIC from a 1.96 M⊙ super-Chandrasekhar WD with a pre-AIC orbital period, Pb, 0 = 14.2 d (open star), and a He WD companion star of mass Mc = 0.254 M⊙. The V-shaped coloured distributions are for the same system but applying a kick of w = 5, 20, and 50 km s−1, respectively, in a random (isotropic) direction. The grey and light grey superimposed distributions are the outcomes of simulations with more relaxed assumptions on the input physics parameters (see text). The RD-AIC scenario fails to explain PSR J0955−6150.
