We used the Australia Telescope in March-April 2005 to observe the RS CVn binary HR 1099 at 1.384 and 2.368 GHz at two epochs, each of 9 h in duration and 11 days apart. During two episodes of coherent emission, we employed a recently installed facility to sample the data at 78 ms intervals to measure the fine temporal and spectral structure of HR 1099. Our main observational results include: ~100% left hand circularly polarised emission was seen at both 1.384 and 2.368 GHz during both epochs; in the first event the emission feature drifted across the spectrum; three 22 min integrations made at 78 ms time resolution showed that the modulation index of the Stokes V parameter increased monotonically as the integration time was decreased and was still increasing at our resolution limit; we believe that the highly polarised emission is due to electron-cyclotron maser emission (ECME) operating in the corona of one of the binary components. We discuss two kinds of maser sources that may be responsible for driving the observed events. We suggest that the ECME source may be an aurora-like phenomenon due to the transfer of plasma from the K2 subgiant to the G5 dwarf in a strong stellar wind.

We present Doppler Images of the RS CVn binary system HR 1099 (V711 Tau) from spectra taken in two different sites, KPNO and MSO, during the MUSICO S 1998 campaign. Contemporaneous APT photometry is used to constrain the Doppler Images. The resulti ng maximum entropy reconstructions based on the least-square s deconvolved profiles, derived from $sim$2000 photospheric absorption lines, r eveal the presence of starspots at medium-high latitudes. We have obtained maps for both components of the binary system for the first time. The predominant str ucture in the primary component is an off-centered polar spot, confirming previo us works on the same target by using independent codes. The result is verified b y using both data sets independently. The lower spectral resolution data set giv es a less detailed map for the MSO data set. The images obtained for the seconda ry component show a low latitude spot around orbital phase 0.7. This spot seems to mirror the structure seen on the primary. It might suggest that tidal forces may influence the spot distribution on this binary system.
We present simultaneous and continuous observations of H_alpha, H_beta, NaI D_1, D_2, HeI D_3 and CaII H & K lines of the chromospherically active binary HR 1099. We have observed HR 1099 for more than 3 weeks almost continuously and monitored two fl ares. An increase in H_alpha and CaII H & K, H_beta and HeI D_3 and a strong filling-in of the NaI D_1, D_2 during the flares are observed. We have found that the flares took place at the same phase (0.85) of the binary orbit, and both of them seems to occur near the limb.

XMM-Newton has been performing comprehensive studies of X-ray luminous RS CVn binary systems in its calibration and guaranteed time programs. We present results from ongoing investigations in the context of a systematic study of coronal emission from RS CVns. We concentrate here on coronal abundances and investigate the abundance pattern in RS CVn binaries as a function of activity and average temperature. We find a transition from an Inverse First Ionization Potential (FIP) effect towards an absence of a clear trend (no FIP) in intermediately active RS CVn systems. This scheme fits well into the long-term evolution from an IFIP to a FIP effect found in solar analogs. We further study variations in the elemental abundances during a large flare.
We present simultaneous and continuous observations of H_alpha, H_beta, NaI D_1, D_2 and HeI D_3 lines of the chromospherically active binary HR 1099. We have observed HR 1099 for more than 3 weeks almost continuously and monitored two flares. An inc rease in H_alpha, CaII H & K, H_beta, HeI D_3 and HeI lambda6678 and a strong filling-in of the NaI D_1, D_2 and MgI b triplet during one of the flares are observed. We have found that the flares took place at the same phase (0.85) of the binary orbit, and both of them seems to occur near the limb. Several X-rays flares were also detected by ASM on board RXTE. Rotational modulation in the X-rays light curve has been detected with maximum flux when the active K1IV star is in front.
We present simultaneous and continuous observations of the H$alpha$, H$beta$, He {sc i} D$_{3}$, Na {sc i} D$_{1}$,D$_{2}$ doublet and the Ca {sc ii} H & K lines for the RS CVn system HR 1099. The spectroscopic observations were obtained during the M USICOS 1998 campaign involving several observatories and instruments, both echelle and long-slit spectrographs. During this campaign, HR 1099 was observed almost continuously for more than 8 orbits of $2fd8$. Two large optical flares were observed, both showing an increase in the emission of H$alpha$, Ca {sc ii} H & K, H$beta$ and He {sc i} D$_{3}$ and a strong filling-in of the Na {sc i} D$_{1}$,D$_{2}$ doublet. {Contemporary photometric observations were carried out with the robotic telescopes APT-80 of Catania and Phoenix-25 of Fairborn Observatories. Maps of the distribution of the spotted regions on the photosphere of the binary components were derived using the Maximum Entropy and Tikhonov photometric regularization criteria}. Rotational modulation was observed in H$alpha$ and He {sc i} D$_{3}$ in anti-correlation with the photometric light curves. Both flares occurred at the same binary phase (0.85), suggesting that these events took place in the same active region. Simultaneous X-ray observations, performed by ASM on board RXTE, show several flare-like events, some of which correlate well with the observed optical flares. Rotational modulation in the X-ray light curve has been detected with minimum flux when the less active G5 V star was in front. A possible periodicity in the X-ray flare-like events was also found.
