Predictions of the model for different white dwarf masses (bottom panels) and assumed consequential angular momentum (CAML) loss prescriptions (top panels). For the average white dwarf mass in CVs, incorporating eCAML (red) produces an earlier detachment (beginning of the period gap) than assuming classical CAML (top panels). The period range covered by the detached phase decreases for more massive white dwarfs (bottom-left panel). The parameters used to calculate the evolutionary tracks were M₂ = 0.8 M_⊙, P_orb = 1 d, and K = η = 30. Symbols are the same as in Fig. 1.
