Rotational modulation and flares on RS CVn and BY Draconis stars. XIII - IUE spectroscopy and photometry of II Pegasi during September 1986

UV spectroscopy obtained for the RS CVn star II Pegasi in September, 1986, indicates the presence of a rotational modulation effect for the Mg II h and k and O I 1305 A lines; the largest flux is observed when the primary spot concentration is nearly on the opposite hemisphere, and the rotational modulation is noted to be of opposite sense to that observed in 1981. Optical photometry shows the largest concentration of spots on one hemisphere ever observed on II Peg, implying a spot group covering over 50 percent of the projected area of one hemisphere.
