Results of our criteria imposed on the Gaia date release 3 data base to select WDMS binaries (see details in Section 2). Top-left: 126 787 sources within the WDMS binary region defined by the black solid lines (Rebassa-Mansergas et al. 2021b) shown in blue with the available spectra and satisfying parallax and flux relative errors above 10%. The gray dots illustrate the expected location of single WD and MS stars. Top-right: same as top-left, after applying our excess factor and astrometry (RUWE; astrometric_excess_noise and astrometric_excess_noise_sig) cuts, which leaves 62 386 objects. Bottom-left: same after excluding single stars using VOSA, leaving 13 905 candidates. Bottom right: final catalogue of 1312 WDMS binaries after visual inspection of the Gaia spectra.
