Scientific paper

We present Doppler images of the surface temperature distribution of the rapidly rotating weak-emission line T Tauri star HDE 283572, as computed from the FeI lambda 6400A, FeI lambda 6393A, CaI lambda 6439A, and LiI lambda 6707A photospheric lines. This analysis reveals the presence of one large polar structure 1600 K colder than the surrounding photosphere. We also find a possible rotational modulation of the Halpha and CaII equivalent line widths that suggests the presence of large-scale chromospheric structures above the stellar surface.
