Okay, so this is admittedly a really trivial issue.  But it was a bit jarring to find a habitable, non-radiated planet - and then suddenly see the neutron star death-beam sweeping across the screen from the secondary star that I somehow hadn't realized was even part of the same system.  If it makes a difference, it was a system where the neutron star was in a far orbit around the primary; further out than any of the primary's planets.

Wyvern is 100% correct about the math.

Seems like a cool anomaly, rather than a bug  :D

Yeah, I'll file this under "weird, but cool". Reeeeeally strong magnetic field, perhaps? :)
