Scientific paper

The results are reported of a systematic search for Beta Pic-like stars, undertaken at ESO, CFHT and OHP. The candidate stars, either IRAS excess stars or shell stars, are investigated by means of high resolution spectroscopy in the Ca II and Na I lines, which in the case of Beta Pic, are very peculiar. The observations are presented and it is shown that among the selected stars, few do show spectral similarities with Beta Pic. Some interesting cases, HR10, HR2174, HR9043 and HR6519 are discussed.
