Maximum unbound mass (M_unb, max, purple triangles pointing down), maximum escaping mass (M_esc, max, mint triangles pointing up), and predicted total pulsation mass loss (M_pul, tot, turquoise diamonds) as a function of companion mass for the three EMS models considered. The dashed gray line indicates the one-to-one relation, a predicted mass loss below this line means that the EMS gains more mass by the stellar merger than what it loses as a result of it and vice versa. The dotted blue line shows the maximum unbound mass estimation if there is no loss of injected energy during the inspiral, namely, α = 1 at all times. The dashed black line shows the extrapolated mass-loss prescription from Glebbeek et al. (2013). Analytical predictions from Ramírez-Galeano et al. (2025) are shown with the solid cherry-hue lines.
