Scientific paper

Using the most recent opacity tables and the corresponding equation of state (EOS) data, we compute the vertical structure of accretion disks in cataclysmic variables, and give the new numerical results. We also present the resulting viscosity-surface density relation. We conclude that the improvement of opacity and EOS hardly influences the disk structure compared to the uncertainties connected with parameterization of viscosity and mixing length.
