Description:
    This compilation contains the current content (as of 1 September 1993)
    of the Catalogue of cataclysmic binaries, low-mass X-ray binaries and
    related objects (previous version: A&AS 85, 1179, catalogue V/59)i,
    however, regarding only the cataclysmic binaries. Accordingly, this 
    compilation provides the equatorial coordinates, magnitudes, orbital 
    parameters and stellar parameters of the components and other 
    characteristic properties of 231 cataclysmic binaries together with a 
    comprehensive list of references to the relevant recent literature. In
    addition the compilation contains a list of recent references to 
    published finding charts for 218 of the 231 objects and a 
    cross-reference list of aliases of object designations.
