Abstract: 
We report on the evolution of the H & alpha; equivalent width (EW) of the Be/X-ray binary system A 0535+262/HD 245770, using observations performed with the spectrograph Albireo, at the 1.5 m telescope of the Observatorio de Sierra Nevada (Granada, Spain) on 2012-03-26 22:27:59.000 UTC (MJD 56012.936), and recently with the spectrograph located at the 51 cm telescope of the Observatorio de Aras de los Olmos of the University of Valencia on 2014-Mar-07 at 21:07:00.000 UTC (MJD 56723.879), and also with the TFOSC spectrometer at the 1.5 m telescope RTT150 of the T & Uuml;B & #304TAK National Observatory (Antalya, Turkey) on 2014-03-18 19:57:14.688 UTC (MJD 56734.831) and 2014-03-19 19:58:30.746 UTC (MJD 56735.832).
