Evolution of the radius as a function of the time left until core collapse (left) and as a function of the evolving envelope mass (right) of the primary star in models with qi = 0.95. Each plot is divided into two parts, with a linear ordinate scale (top) and a logarithmic ordinate scale (bottom). The color coding reflects the initial orbital periods, where dashed lines correspond to phases of RLOF. Key evolutionary phases are also highlighted by gray vertical bars (left) or markers (right), indicating respectively when core He and C are ignited (-ign) and depleted (-dep).
