Abstract:
The 28 cataclysmic variables (CVs) found in 2005 in the Sloan Digital
Sky Survey are presented with their coordinates, magnitudes, and
spectra. Five of these systems are previously known CVs (HH Cnc,
SX LMi, QZ Ser, AP CrB, and HS 1016+3412), and the rest are new
discoveries. Additional spectroscopic, photometric, and/or
polarimetric observations of 10 systems were carried out, resulting in
estimates of the orbital periods for seven of the new binaries. The 23
new CVs include one eclipsing system, one new Polar, and five systems
whose spectra clearly reveal atmospheric absorption lines from the
underlying white dwarf.
