Fig. 11.

Minimum inclination angle of the orbit for avoiding RLOF as a function of the mass ratio and for different durations of the eclipse relative to the orbital period. In the upper panel, a circular orbit is assumed, and in the lower panel, we account for an eccentricity of 0.0898 and enforce no RLOF even at periastron.
