Abstract
ζ Aur binaries are wide eclipsing systems (P≃1...10 yrs), containing a late supergiant primary (G to M type) and an early dwarf companion (AO V ... B3 V). Some recent studies of wind phenomena (mass loss rates), chromospheric properties and wind acceleration (of the supergiant) as well as wind accretion phenomena introduced by the gravitational interaction with the companion are presented, summarizing previous work of the Hamburg ‘binary wind team’(mainly D. Reimers, R. Baade, A. Che-Bohnenstengel, K. Hempe, K.-P. Schröder).
