Accretion inevitably produces disk winds which has vast consequences. These outflows can regulate the accretion process affect the long-term orbital evolution of the X-ray binary and impact their cosmic environment. However it is not established exactly how disk winds are launched and how much mass is carried away by them. We propose to study the disk wind of a persistently accreting neutron star across the electromagnetic spectrum with XMM-Newton HST and VLT. These simultaneous multi-wavelength data will determine the launch mechanism and mass content of the disk wind. This show-case study will highlight the impact of studying disk winds across the electromagnetic spectrum and pave the way for future observing programs. [truncated!
