The 2H(α, γ)6Li experiment at LUNA

Recent observations of 6Li in metal poor stars suggests a huge production of this isotope during BBN, through the 2H(α, γ)6Li reaction. This reaction has never been directly measured inside the BBN energy region because its cross section drops steeply at low energy, while indirect measurements using...
