Fractions in percent of systems that are considered to merge within the Hubble time f_merge (light purple), expected to stay in a bound binary configuration and are still too wide to merge within a Hubble time f_bound (orange) and to be disrupted f_disrupt (light blue) by the natal NS kick. Considered are the following evolutionary pathways after the CE event: Either the post-CE binary first experiences an MT episode followed by the SN (MT+SN) or the CBD interaction and an MT episode transitions into the SN (CBD+MT+SN). All events are modeled separately, and the assumptions for the calculations are provided in Sect. 3.5.
