Distribution of Cataclysmic Variables in our Galaxy and Their Position in the HR Diagram in the Gaia Era

Abstract

In this study, the distances of stellar systems classified as cataclysmic variables in the literature were determined by using the distance compiled from Bailer-Jones et al. (2021). The spatial distributions of cataclysmic variables in the heliocentric Galactic coordinate system are obtained and their positions in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram constructed from Gaia colors are discussed.
