The dynamical evolution of star clusters with an initial population of binaries strongly depends on the parameters of the bounded pairs. The authors performed computational simulation with direct N-body codes, on models with N = 300 objects, with initial fraction of 20% of binaries with the same orbital semi-axis and with a Salpeter mass spectrum. The results are compared with previous analysis on similar equal-mass star models. The calculation points out that binaries with different mass companions determine an enhanced and sudden expansion of the system with neither core collapse nor central mass segregation.
