The recent launch of the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) satellite and its spectrographic instruments (Boggess et al. 1978a,b) suddenly made accessible large numbers of diverse types of binary systems. These range from the luminous hot supergiants with compact companions that produce copious amounts of X-rays to the dwarf solar like stars of W UMa-type. For systems such as these and many others the IUE is a new and unique tool with which to probe the structure of extended stellar atmospheres, the presence and acceleration of a stellar wind, and the appearance of stellar chromospheres and coronae.
