Scientific paper

An overview of research on massive close binary (MCB) evolution in the late seventies and eighties is presented, and the processes involved in massive close binaries are explained. The following aspects of the MCB evolution study are considered: definition and types; observations of non-evolved and evolved MCB; physical processes; and stellar wind mass loss rates and convective core overshooting. A comparison between MCB observations and evolutionary computations is made. For future developments of stellar evolution, physical studies and the determinaton of adequate abundances of carbon, oxygen and nitrogen of stars covering the whole massive star range are recommended.
