Population synthesis for low and intermediate mass binaries

Astrophysics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

A review of the basic principles of the population synthesis for binary stars is presented. We discuss the break-up of low and intermediate mass close binaries over different evolutionary scenarios and, as an example, briefly consider results of the population synthesis for SN Ia.
