  "abstract": "We perform population synthesis modeling of neutron star binary systems containing a low-mass main-sequence companion underfilling its Roche lobe. About $10^5$ such systems are expected to exist in the Milky Way. In the majority of such systems, NSs are expected to start accreting the stellar wind matter within a few Gyr, resulting in the appearance of a dim X-ray source. The exact value of this fraction mainly depends on the efficiency of the propeller spin-down, properties of the stellar wind, and common envelope efficiency. Mostly, NSs in such systems are formed in electron capture supernovae. Thus, they obtain a low natal kick. Due to this, the center-of-mass velocities of such binaries are low, too. Only in the case of high common envelope efficiency ($α_\\mathrm{CE}\\gtrsim 3$), a few tens of long-lived high-velocity binaries can be produced in core-collapse supernovae.",
