Lithium production on a low-mass secondary in a black hole soft X-ray transient
Shin-ichiro Fujimoto, Ryuichi Matsuba, Kenzo Arai
We examine production of Li on the surface of a low-mass secondary in a black hole soft X-ray transient (BHSXT) through the spallation of CNO nuclei by neutrons which are ejected f…
