Popis:	It is shown that X-ray binaries can be accelerated by their own radiation. It is possible if the magnetic field of a neutron star in a binary differs from the dipolar field. Asymmetric X-ray emission generated due to accretion of matter onto a neutron star surface creates an accelerating force. Its magnitude can be comparable or even larger than gravitational attraction of the binary to the Galaxy.
