One fewer solution to the cosmological lithium problem
Oliver S. Kirsebom, Barry Davids
TL;DR
This paper rules out a nuclear physics-based solution to the cosmological lithium problem using recent 9Be(3He,t)9B experimental data.
Contribution
It provides experimental evidence dismissing a proposed nuclear physics explanation for the lithium discrepancy.
Findings
Recent 9Be(3He,t)9B data exclude certain nuclear solutions
Supports the need for alternative explanations for the lithium problem
Refines constraints on nuclear physics models related to cosmology
Abstract
Data from a recent 9Be(3He,t)9B measurement are used to rule out a possible solution to the cosmological lithium problem based on conventional nuclear physics.
