Title:Multiwavelength Observations of Be/X-ray Binaries and their Implications
Abstract:I will review recent highlights of using multiwavelength observations to study the interactions between Be stars and their compact companions. Optical, infrared, and radio observations provide insight about the mass outflow from the star (the circumstellar disk, stellar winds, and mass transfer streams) that is necessary to understand the overall Be/X-ray binary system.
