The Space Density of Magnetic and Non-magnetic Cataclysmic Variables, and Implications for CV Evolution

We present constraints on the space densities of non-magnetic and magnetic cataclysmic variables, and discuss some implications for models of the evolution of CVs. The high predicted non-magnetic CV space density is only consistent with observations if the majority of these systems are extremely fai...
