The stellar evolutionary processes responsible for the formation of compact objects in interacting binary systems and their evolution are described. The common envelope phase plays a crucial role in their formation and angular momentum losses associated with magnetic braking and/or mass loss are important for their evolution. An application of these processes provides the evolutionary link between classes of interacting binary systems.

Resumen

Resumen

Se describen los procesos evolutivos estelares responsables de la formación de objetos compactos en sistemas binarios en interacción y su evolución. La fase de envolvente común juega un papel crucial en su formación y las pérdidas del momento angular relacionadas con el frenado magnético y/o pérdida de masa son importantes para su evolución. La aplicación de estos procesos proporciona el eslabón evolutivo entre las clases de sistemas binarios inter-actuantes.
