Abstract in Portuguese
Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido um novo m´etodo de s´ntese espectral para modelar o disco de acres¸cao de vari´aveis catacl´smicas (VCs) nao magn´eticas. O principal objetivo deste trabalho ´e analisar a emissao do cont´nuo e das linhas em uma ampla faixa espectral no ultravioleta (UV). O disco ´e separado em an´eis concentricos e, para cada anel uma atmosfera de disco com vento ´e calculada. Na base, as atmosferas sao calculadas consistemente com o vento, tendo a distribui¸cao de densidade dos modelos de atmosferas de disco de Wade e Hubeny. A estrutura ´e calculada no sistema co-m´ovel com um perfil de velocidade vertical obtido da solu¸cao da equa¸cao de Euler para um disco de acres¸cao. O comportamento das linhas e do cont´nuo como fun¸cao da inclina¸cao orbital ´e consistente com as observa¸coes. Tamb´em foi verificado que a taxa de acres¸cao influi sobre a temperatura do vento levando `as mudan¸cas correspondentes nas intensidades relativas das linhas. Foi encontrado que a massa da prim´aria tem uma forte influencia na profundidade dos perfis de absor¸cao. Tamb´em, encontramos que a os perfis de linha sao fortemente sens´veis ao incremento da taxa de perda de massa, aumentado a intensidade das linhas de emissao. Foram escolhidos dados espectrosc´opicos no UV de duas VCs Nova-like (NL) de baixa inclina¸cao, RW Sex e V3885 Sgr e dois sistemas de alta inclina¸cao, RW Tri e V347 Pup. Uma concordancia dos perfis em emissao dos modelos foi encontrada quando confrontados com os dados no caso de sistemas de alta inclina¸cao. Uma falta de fluxo nas linhas de alta ioniza¸cao Civ ¸¸1548,1551 and Nv ¸¸1238,1242, pode ser o sinal da influencia da boundary layer (BL) ou da influencia da irradia¸cao das regioes externas do vento pelo disco interno. Estas influencias seriam cruciais no caso de sistemas baixa inclina¸cao, mas sao menores no caso de sistemas de alta inclina¸cao.

Abstract in English
We have developed a new spectral synthesis method for modeling the accretion disk of non-magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs). The aim of this work is to analyze the continuum and line emission of disks in a wide ultraviolet (UV) spectral range. The disk is separated in concentric rings, and for each ring a wind plus disk atmosphere are calculated. The wind atmospheres are calculated consistently with a density given by Wade and Hubeny disk-atmosphere models at their base. The structure is calculated in the co-moving frame with a vertical velocity profile defined by the Eulers equation solution for the disk wind. We found that the resulting line and continuum behavior as a function of the orbital inclination is consistent with the observations. We also verify that the accretion rate changes the wind temperature, leading to corresponding trends in the intensity of lines. We found that the primary mass has a strong effect on the absorption profiles depth. It was verified that the lines profiles are strongly sensitive to the wind temperature structure and a rise of mass loss rate increases the line intensity. Selected UV data for two high orbital inclination nova-like (NL) CVs, RW Tri and V347 Pup, were confronted with synthetic spectra. The line widths and profiles are reasonably well reproduced by the models. A lack of flux in some high ionization lines (C iv ¸¸1548,1551 and Nv ¸¸1238,1242) may be the signature of the boundary layer (BL) effect and/or the irradiation of outer wind by inner disk. We also found that for high inclination systems the vertical wind structure is less important than for low inclination system models.
