Gaia DR3 Catalog - White Dwarfs (Standard Version)

This catalog contains 96,243 white dwarfs, as classified by Olivier Vincent et al. using XP spectra to compute synthetic photometry. Most values were provided directly by them, leaving me only to crossmatch their catalog's SourceIDs with the main Gaia table and the Bailer-Jones distance catalog so that I could calculate missing values and format it for SpaceEngine.

This catalog is only duplicate-filtered against the default SpaceEngine star catalogs and shouldn't be used with any of the older DR2 addons, including the DR2 White Dwarfs addon that used to be available on the SpaceEngine forums.

If you are using any of the old DR2 addons, the full collection of Compatibility Version catalogs is available HERE.
