Scientific paper

The evolution of massive binary systems with shock fronts of colliding winds is studied. One of the important effects of the shock fronts of colliding winds is the producing of X-ray radiation. The second important effect of the shock fronts of stellar winds is to prevent the mass exchange between the two components of the binary systems. This has an important effect on the evolution of the massive binary systems. A comparison of the evolution in case B for a 40 Msun+30 Msun binary system with or without shock fronts of colliding winds shows that the orbital period becomes much shorter and the total mass of the system becomes much smaller for the case with shock fronts than that without shock fronts.
