We combine two complete, X-ray flux-limited surveys, the ROSAT Bright Survey (RBS) and the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) survey, to measure the space density (\rho) and X-ray luminosity function (\Phi) of non-magnetic CVs. The combined…

We report two new radio detections of cataclysmic variables (CVs), and place them in context with radio and X-ray detections of other CVs. We detected QS Vir, a low accretion-rate CV; V2400 Oph, a diskless intermediate polar (IP); and…

eROSITA will perform the most sensitive X-ray all-sky ever in the energy range 0.3 - 10 keV. It will likely uncover several 10^4 compact binaries, most of them will be cataclysmic variable stars. After a brief introduction to eROSITA we…

The commissioning year of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey has demonstrated that many cataclysmic variables have been missed in previous surveys with brighter limits. We report the identification of 22 cataclysmic variables, of which 19 are new…

This paper completes the series of cataclysmic variables (CVs) identified from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey I/II. The coordinates, magnitudes and spectra of 33 CVs are presented. Among the 33 are eight systems known previous to SDSS (CT…

We present a catalogue of 507 cataclysmic variables (CVs) observed in SDSS I to IV including 70 new classifications collated from multiple archival data sets. This represents the largest sample of CVs with high-quality and homogeneous…

Coordinates, magnitudes and spectra are presented for 39 cataclysmic variables found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra that were primarily obtained in 2006. Of these, 12 were CVs identified prior to the SDSS spectra (GY Cnc, GO Com, ST…

A sample of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is presented including spectroscopically identified 380 spectra of 245 objects, of which 58 CV candidates are new discoveries. The BaggingTopPush and the Random Forest algorithms are applied to the…

The increasing number of synoptic surveys made by small robotic telescopes, such as the photometric Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey (CRTS), represents a unique opportunity for the discovery of variable sources and improves the…

In cataclysmic variables (CVs), accretion onto white dwarfs produces high temperature, high density plasmas. They cool down from kT~10 keV via bremsstrahlung continuum and K and L shell line emissions. The small volume around white dwarfs…

The 2dF QSO survey is a spectroscopic survey of 48,000 point-sources selected by colour with magnitudes in the range 18.35 < B < 20.95. Amongst QSOs, white dwarfs, narrow-line galaxies and other objects are some cataclysmic variables (CVs).…

The spatial distribution, Galactic model parameters and luminosity function of cataclysmic variables (CVs) are established using re-estimated trigonometric parallaxes of {\it Gaia} DR3. The data sample of 1,587 CVs in this study is claimed…

Short-period cataclysmic variables (spCVs), with orbital periods below the period gap ($P_{orb}$ < 2 hr), offer insight into the evolutionary models of CVs and can serve as strong emitters of gravitational waves (GWs). To identify new spCV…

We report on optical spectroscopic and photometric follow-up observations of the eROSITA discovered transient SRGt 062340.2-265751 and show that it displays the characteristics of a nova-like cataclysmic variable (CV), with possible…

The first full year of operation following the commissioning year of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey has revealed a wide variety of newly discovered cataclysmic variables. We show the SDSS spectra of forty-two cataclysmic variables observed in…

The optical identification of large number of X-ray sources such as those from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey is challenging with conventional spectroscopic follow-up observations. We investigate two ROSAT All-Sky Survey fields of size 10 * 10…
