Evolution of binary models I (left panels), II (middle panels) and III (right panels), with their initial parameters and physical assumptions listed in Table 1. The top panels show the evolution of the primary (orange) and secondary (blue) stars in the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram. The middle panels display the evolution of the mass loss rate as a function of stellar age, using the same color scheme. The bottom panels show the time evolution of ω/ω_crit for the secondary star. The thick vertical cyan lines indicate, from left to right, the times when mass transfer ceases and when TE is restored.
