Cataclysmic variables: Disk characteristics from UV observations

Abstract

Low dispersion IUE spectra of 3 cataclysmic variables (V442 Oph, V794 Aq1 and H2215-086) are discussed in terms of current disk models. The range of continuum fluxes, line emission and disk parameters of these three novalike systems are compared with past observations of dwarf novae at outburst and quiescence. Evidence of variability on orbital time scales is presented for V442 Oph and H2215-086.
