Keywords Lambda Boo stars
Description We present the first results of our programme of high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectroscopic observations of selected lambda Boo stars. Observations acquired in the framework of this project will be used to derive the relative abundances of chemical elements on the surface of the star. This information then will be used in detailed asteroseismic analysis aiming to answer the long-standing question whether the lambda Boo stars are peculiar only on the surface or throughout the whole star. This research may also help us to address larger problems of star formation and evolution, and gain insights into planet formation and planet - debris disk interaction.
