 Donor-wind angular-momentum loss

An isotropic escaping stellar wind has the donor star's mean specific orbital angular momentum. With ${\dot{M}}_d<0$, retained fraction $f$, negligible spin and no additional wind torque, $\dot{J}=(1-f){\dot{M}}_d{a}_d^2\Omega$. The retained matter redistributes angular momentum internally. Unlike isotropic re-emission from a binary star, the escaping material originates at the donor rather than the accretor. With no retention this reduces to Jeans-mode mass loss.
