Isolated millisecond pulsars ( IMSPs ) are a topic of academic contention . There are various models to explain their formation . We explore the formation of IMSP via quark novae ( QN ) . During this formation process , low-mass X-ray binaries ( LMXBs ) are disrupted when the mass of the neutron star ( NS ) reaches 1.8 M _ { \odot } . Using population synthesis , this work estimates that the Galactic birthrate of QN-produced IMSPs lies between \sim 9.5 \times 10 ^ { -6 } and \sim 1.7 \times 10 ^ { -4 } yr ^ { -1 } . The uncertainties shown in our experiment model is due to the QN ’ s kick velocity . Furthermore , our findings not only show that QN-produced IMSPs are statistically more significant than those produced by mergers , but also that millisecond pulsar binaries with a high eccentricity may originate from LMXBs that have been involved in , yet not disrupted by , a QN .
