Scientific paper

IUE spectra and optical observations of IM Peg obtained during the summers of 1985 and 1986 are analyzed. The modulations of the UV emission lines and the H-alpha, H-beta, and the CaII IR triplet (IRT) optical lines are examined. It is observed that: the UV emissin-line modulation increases as a function of height, H-alpha variability is related to stochastic events, H-beta displays excess absorption relative to a standard star, and the Ca IRT reveals a clear modulation with phase. It is noted that IM Peg corresponds to the solar paradigm used to explain RS CVn activity.
