Taam, R. E. ; Wade, R. A. Abstract Results are presented for 10 evolutionary sequences of close binary systems of extreme mass ratio. Angular momentum loss associated with material outflow from the system, a consequence of the ineffectiveness of tidal torques, as well as gravitational radiation is included in the calculations. It is found that a previously described mass transfer instability is extremely sensitive to the amount of angular momentum loss by material means. The application of these results to the millisecond pulsar PSR 1937 + 214 suggests that its origin does not involve the continuous accretion of matter in a low-mass X-ray binary system.
