Neutron injection during primordial nucleosynthesis alleviates the primordial 7Li problem
Daniel Albornoz Vasquez, Alexander Belikov, Alain Coc +2
We present a parametrized study of the effects of free thermal neutron injection on primordial nucleosynthesis, where both the rate and the time scale of injection are varied. This…
The variation of fundamental constants and the role of A=5 and A=8 nuclei on primordial nucleosynthesis
Alain Coc, Pierre Descouvemont, Keith Olive +2
We investigate the effect of a variation of fundamental constants on primordial element production in big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). We focus on the effect of a possible change in…
Higher D or Li: Probes of Physics beyond the Standard Model
Keith A. Olive, Patrick Petitjean, Elisabeth Vangioni +1
Standard Big Bang Nucleosynthesis at the baryon density determined by the microwave anisotropy spectrum predicts an excess of \li7 compared to observations by a factor of 4-5. In c…
