Using Inertial Fusion Implosions to Measure the T + [superscript 3]He Fusion Cross Section at Nucleosynthesis-Relevant Energies
Light nuclei were created during big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). Standard BBN theory, using rates inferred from accelerator-beam data, cannot explain high levels of [superscript 6]Li in low-metallicity stars. Using high-energy-density plasmas we measure the T([superscript 3]He,γ)[superscript 6]Li re...
