Accreted mass versus final NS spins ( P spin f $ P^{f}_{\mathrm{spin}} $) in our simulated grid with β = 0.3. We show the different initial masses as different colors (shown in the legend) and distinguish between the NSs that had M NS f 2.5 M $ M^{f}_{\mathrm{NS}}\ge 2.5\,\mathrm{M}_\odot $ (crosses) and those where M NS f < 2.5 M $ M^{f}_{\mathrm{NS}} < 2.5\,\mathrm{M}_\odot $ (circles). We also compare our results to the equilibrium spin period calculations from Tauris et al. (2012), done for M NS i = 1.3 M $ M^{i}_{\mathrm{NS}} = 1.3\,\mathrm{M}_\odot $ (light blue curve) and 2.0 M (dark orange curve). The black dotted line shows the observed spin for PSR J0952–0607 (spin period of 1.41 ms) and the gray dotted line shows the upper limit for MSPs considered (30 ms).
