| Abstract: | Excitations of two oppositely directed waves of stellar activity generated by two dynamo-active layers located in a single stellar hemisphere are examined using simple dynamo models. The domains of model parameters corresponding to various types and directions of the activity waves are found. It is shown that oppositely directed waves of activity are generated if the dynamo numbers have the same order of magnitude, ~105?106, but opposite signs. How frequently this case can be observed among real stars remains open to question. The report of oppositely directed waves of stellar activity in the literature is especially valuable in this connection. |
