Scientific paper

The evolution of massive close binaries is revised by taking into account overshooting from convective cores. Nine different evolutionary scenarios are presented, resulting from the introduction of an Of phase for each component. The theoretical results are compared to observations of Wolf-Rayet binaries and X-ray binaries. It is found that X-ray binaries originate from the lower mass Wolf-Rayet binaries. The existence of WR+Of stars is predicted.
