@article{Montes1997MultiwavelengthOO, title={Multiwavelength Optical Observations of Chromospherically Active Binary Systems}, author={David Montes and Jorge Sanz-Forcada and Mar{\'i}a Jos{\'e} Fern{\'a}ndez-Figueroa and E. de Castro and Manuel Cornide and Lawrence W. Ramsey}, journal={Astrophysics and Space Science}, year={1997}, volume={263}, pages={279-282} }
We summarize here our ongoing project of multiwavelength optical observations aimed at studying the chromosphere of active binary systems, using the information provided for several optical spectroscopic features, that are formed at different heights in the chromosphere.
