Binary evolution results in a M2 − Porb diagram. The observed binary pulsars with He WDs and MSs are plotted as cyan upward-pointing triangles and magenta squares, and the masses are the lowest possible masses of the companions of observed binary pulsars. The red dots indicate the initial grid. The color bar indicates the mass-transfer rate. The different panels show different irradiation efficiencies.
