Abstract

The nature of the circumstellar material in interacting binaries of the Algol-type, including the accretion disk, gas stream, high temperature plasma, and domains of outflow is reviewed. Mass transfer is compared in six similar systems with early B primaries and short-moderate periods that approximately represent a series of snapshots of such binaries during their slow evolutionary phase. Evidence for moderate systemic mass loss during the current and earlier stages is presented.
