Abstract

Both the recently observed high runaway velocities of Cyg X-1 (̃ 50 km s^-1) and X-ray Nova Sco 1994 (≥ 100 km s^-1) and the relatively low radial velocities of the black hole X-ray binaries with low mass donor stars, can be explained by symmetric mass ejection in the supernovae (SNe) which formed the black holes in these systems. We find that at least 2.6M_☉ and 4.1M_☉ must have been ejected in the formation of Cyg X-1 and Nova Sco, respectively. A possible kick at the formation of the black hole is not needed to explain their space velocities.
