The following is an abbreviated "ReadMe" document that describes this ADC catalog.
Superseded  Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables  (Downes+ 1993)
================================================================================
A Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables 
     Downes R.A., Shara M.M. 
     <Publ. Astron. Soc. Pac. 105, 127 (1993)> 
================================================================================
ADC_Keywords: Atlases ; Stars, variable

Description:
  This catalog contains data for 825 cataclysmic variables. It includes
  coordinates measured in the reference frame of the Hubble Space
  Telescope Guide Star Survey for non-novae and from the literature for
  novae. Also given are the variability type, the magnitude range,
  references to finding charts and spectroscopy, the galactic latitude
  and longitude, and the year of outburst for novae. The two files
  contain the same data, sorted by right ascension and by constellation,
  respectively. 

  A Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables as distributed here
  is in two files. The first file contains the cataclysmic variables
  in constellation order, while the second contains the objects in
  order of increasing right ascension.
