Abstract

We present the discovery of two new quasars, that initially appeared as candidate cataclysmic variables (CVs) in a list of the Calán-Tololo objective prism survey. However, additional spectroscopic and photometric observations revealed their true nature. Furthermore we present data for a third quasar, CTCV J0322-4653, which has also been found in our study, but which has already been included in the list of Maza et al. (\cite{Ma96}) as CTS 0639. Here we present the spectra for the first time. Based on observations collected at the European Southern Observatory, La Silla, Chile
