The Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables (Edition 1 - 1993) and Edition 2 - 1997) has been a valuable source of information for the cataclysmic variable (CV) community. However, the goal of having a central location for all objects is slowly being lost as each new edition is generated. There can also be a long time delay between new information becoming available on an object and its publication in the catalog. To eliminate these concerns, as well as to make the catalog more accessible, we have created a web site which will contain a ``living'' edition of the catalog. We have also added orbital period information, as well as finding charts for novae, to the catalog.

  1. Cataclysmic Variables Photometric Periods from TESS

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5

    TESS data give photometric periods for 1362 cataclysmic variables (hundreds new), confirming the 2–3 h gap, a sample median of 3.68 h, and spin periods for 83 intermediate polars.

  2. Cataclysmic variables from SRG/eROSITA: new systems from eRASS1

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    A Random Forest plus Gaia/eROSITA match yields 156 spectroscopically confirmed CVs from eRASS1, spanning subtypes, periods, and luminosities, with the method outperforming several published alternatives.

  3. Cataclysmic Variables Photometric Periods from TESS

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    TESS photometry yields coherent periods for 1,362 CVs, including roughly 465–565 first determinations, and confirms the 2–3 h period gap with a median period near 3.68 h.

  4. Cataclysmic Variables Photometric Periods from TESS

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    TESS photometry of 1,362 cataclysmic variables yields 565 new period measurements, confirms the 2–3 h period gap, and finds a median CV photometric period of 3.681 h.
