Fig. B.3.

Evolution of binary parameters across the CE phase. In the top panel, we present the evolution of the donor mass loss (ṀRLOF, blue) and mass transfer scales: thermal (Ṁth, dotted green) and nuclear (Ṁnuc, dot-dashed red). In the mid panel, the separation (a) and in the lower panel the relative overflow (f(R, RRL)). Solid (dashed) lines represent αCE = 2.0 (αCE = 1.0).
