Transforming Doppler tomography to unravel the accretion dynamics in cataclysmic variables
Doppler tomography has revolutionised the interpretation of phase-resolved spectra of interacting binaries. The standard technique extracts emission and kinematic information contained in such spectra and projects it onto a two-dimensional velocity coordinate frame. This thesis describes my investig...
