Abstract
We present 25 cataclysmic variables discovered in the Chandra Multi-wavelength Plane Survey (ChaMPlane: Grindlay et al. (2005); Hong et al. (2005); Zhao et al. (2005)), which is designed to investigate the nature of the serendipitous X-ray point sources discovered by the Chandra X-ray Observatory in the galactic plane (|b| < 12°), in order to constrain the populations of faint (L_x < 1033 erg/s) accretion-powered sources in the Galaxy.
