Description
Using Eggleton's stellar evolution code, we carry out 150 runs of Population I binary evolution calculations with the initial primary mass between 1 and 8 solar masses, the initial mass ratio q=M_1/M_2 between 1.1 and 4, and the onset of Roche lobe overflow (RLOF) at an early, middle or late Hertzsprung-gap stage. We assume that the RLOF is conservative in the calculations. We list characteristics for binaries with different initial parameters at the beginning of RLOF, minimum luminosity during RLOF, the end of the last episode of RLOF and the end of the evolutionary calculations. The characteristics includes the age of the primary, its mass, mass transfer rate, its effective temperature, its luminosity, its radius, its helium core mass, its carbon-oxygen core mass, the hydrogen abundance at its surface, the mass ratio of the binary, and the orbital period.
