Discovery of Two Polars from a Crossmatch of ZTF and the SRG/eFEDS X-Ray Catalog

Magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs) are luminous Galactic X-ray sources, which have been difficult to find in purely optical surveys due to their lack of outburst behavior. The eROSITA telescope on board the Spektr-RG mission is conducting an all-sky X-ray survey and recently released the public eR...
