BB Dor was observed with COS during an intermediate state with a low mass accretion rate, thereby allowing an estimate of the WD temperature. The results of our spectral analysis show that the WD is a significant far-ultraviolet (FUV) component of the spectrum with a temperature of about 35,000-50,000 K, assuming a WD mass of 0.80 {M}<SUB>☉ </SUB>({log}(g)=8.4). The disk, with a mass accretion rate of ≈ {10}<SUP>-10</SUP> {M}<SUB>☉ </SUB> {{yr}}<SUP>-1</SUP>, contributes about 1/5 to 1/2 of the FUV flux.STAMPAenArticle10.3847/1538-4357/833/2/1462-s2.0-85007575687000391169600021https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/833/2/1462016ApJ...833..146GFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation
