Scientific paper

The nature of the X-ray emission in disk-accreting CVs is still poorly understood. Many lines of evidence point to the boundary layer between disk and white dwarf as the main source of X-rays. We have underway an extensive XMM-Newton observing program to investigate the nature of the boundary layer emission. XMM-Newton is particularly suited due to its capability to observe simultaneously in X-rays and the UV. We present our findings for the first disk-accreting CVs observed in our program.
