Influence of the magnetic braking index, γ on the orbital evolution of an LMXB system with M2 = 1.2 M⊙, MNS = 1.3 M⊙ and initial Porb = 2.8 days. Plotted is Porb as a function of age of the donor star. None of these models produce a solution (i.e. detachment within the grey shaded region). Instead the outcome is two diverging and two converging systems.
