Mar 10, 2016 at 9:44 comment added CuriousOne How much time and money do you have? :-) Now, seriously... of course it is theoretically possible to tidal lock a neutron star, gravity itself will cause the necessary asymmetry, like in any other object, the problem is the incredibly large angular momentum that you are trying to transfer... to what... exactly? Another neutron star or a black hole sounds like the best alternative.
