The radius of gyration of main-sequence stars is an important parameter in studies of circularization and synchronization of close binaries. New values calculated on the basis of updated models of stellar structure with the latest opacity tables are presented. The importance of evolution in calculating moments of inertia is emphasized. The results are presented in such a way that they can be directly used to compare theoretical predictions with actual observations.
