The problem is considered of the slow outflow of gas from a Close Binary System with subsequent formation of a shell or cloud of matter around the whole system. It appears that with a small change of velocity introduced to the most external parts of the gaseous ring around one of the components the gas particles can flow out from the binary system leaving it through the external Lagrangian point. This process can lead to the formation of a shell around the binary star. The change in kinetic energy of a gas particle corresponding to the perturbation in its motion leading to the escape through the adjacent external Lagrangian point can be smaller than 10% of the total kinetic energy of the considered particle for the case of a ring around a component with mass equal to or larger than the mass of the companion.
