Method of constructing a synthetic light curve for eclipsed polars

The synthesis of the light curve should take into account such features of a binary star as the presence of a mutual eclipse of the components, the heating of the surface of the optical star by X-ray radiation of a hot spot, the formation of hot spots in the region of accretion of matter. When calculating the total radiation flux, its absorption and scattering are taken into account, which is determined by the distribution of matter in the calculated region.
