dc.descriptionWe analyze here late evolutionary stages of massive (with initial mass higher than 8 masses of the Sun) close binary stars. Our purposes are to study possible mechanisms of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) origin. We suppose in this paper that GRB phenomenon require formation of massive (approx. 1 M_sun) compact (approx. 10 km) accretion disks around Kerr black holes and neutron stars. Such Kerr black holes are products of collapse of Wolf-Rayet stars in extremely close binaries and merging of neutron stars with black holes and neutron stars with neutron stars in close binary systems. Required accretion disks also can be formed around neutron stars which were formed during collapse of accreting oxygen-neon white dwarfs. We have estimated frequencies of events which lead to a rotational collapse concerned with formation of rapidly rotating relativistic objects in the Galaxy. We made our calculations using the "Scenario Machine".
