The intermediate polar, EX Hydrae, was the object of a large simultaneous
multiwavelength observational campaign during 2000 May - June. Here we present
the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer photometry and optical photometry and
spectroscopy from ground-based observatories obtained as part of this campaign.
Balmer line radial velocities and Doppler maps provide evidence for an extended
bulge along the outer edge of the accretion disk and some form of
extended/overflowing material originating from the hot spot. In addition, the
optical binary eclipse possesses an extended egress shoulder, an indication
that an additional source (other than the white dwarf) is coming out of
eclipse. We also compare the X-ray and optical results with the results
obtained from the EUV and UV observations from the multiwavelength data set.Comment: to appear in the Astronomical Journal, April 200
