Previous generations of X-ray observatories revealed a group of massive binaries that were relatively bright X-ray emitters. This was attributed to emission of shock-heated plasma in the wind-wind interaction zone located between the stars. With the advent of the current generation of X-ray observatories, the phenomenon could be studied in much more detail. In this review, we highlight the progress that has been achieved in our understanding of the phenomenon over the last 15 years, both on theoretical and observational grounds. All these studies have paved the way for future investigations using the next generation of X-ray satellites that will provide crucial information on the X-ray emission formed in the innermost part of the wind-wind interaction.

The IACOB project XVIII. Prevalence of short-period binaries among Galactic helium rich O-type stars
In 45 O-type binaries, all seven helium-rich systems are short-period runaways, suggesting binary interaction is the main cause of helium enrichment.

A multi-epoch spectral and photometric study to understand the nature of the interesting Be star candidate HD 249179
HD 249179, previously cataloged as a possible X-ray binary, shows H-alpha, Paschen, and O I emission, weak V/R changes, two pulsation frequency groups, and no detected X-rays, pointing to a classical Be star with an a...
