Scientific paper

Synthetic populations of massive stars are used to study the evolution of WR star populations at solar and SMC metallicities. The effects of different star formation scenarios and IMF slopes are examined. Consideration is given to an instantaneous burst and a constant star formation rate in which massive stars are continuously replaced. Results of the synthetic population models are presented, including the behavior of the synthesized number ratios of WR to O stars and WC to WR stars are studied as a function of time.
