Scientific paper

Data collected by the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) has furthered our knowledge of interacting binary stars. Binaries comprise 70% of the galaxy's stellar population, with about one-half of these being spectroscopic binaries. IUE data collected over its 15-year and continuing lifetime together with ground-based observational data on interacting binaries have contributed to the discovery of: (1) hot companions to single-lined late type binaries as well as to giant and supergiant binaries previously believed to be single objects, (2) high electron temperature regions, (3) evidence for mass loss and velocity gradients, (4) intercombinational lines in a few interacting binaries, and (5) wind collision effects.
