Abstract: | We present a mechanism to take into account angular-momentum loss in binary systems with non-conservative mass transfer. In a number of cases, mass loss in the system can increase the orbital angular momentum of the stars. Including this mechanism in evolutionary models substantially expands the domain of stable mass transfer in binary systems. All observed cataclysmic binaries with known component masses fall within the calculated area for stable mass transfer. |
