Abstract

The paper describes three methods for constructing synthetic Doppler tomograms. These methods are applied to the results of MHD simulation of the V808 Aur polar, and the synthetic Doppler tomograms obtained are compared with observational Doppler tomograms. The features of tomograms obtained by different methods are compared. The use of the considered methods for detecting exoplanets and investigating their envelopes is discussed. When comparing observational tomograms and synthetic Doppler maps, it was shown that the method of mapping makes it possible to obtain intensity distributions in velocity space that are in better agreement with observational tomograms than their counterparts constructed by the convolution method.
