On the Determination of the 7Be(n, )4He Reaction Cross Section at BBN Energies

7Be destruction channels are currently a matter of study because of their influence on the 7Li cosmological abundances. Here, we determine the cross section of the (n, ) reaction by using Trojan Horse experimental data for the 7Li(p, )4He reaction and correcting for Coulomb effects. The deduced 7Be(...

Zusammenfassung:7Be destruction channels are currently a matter of study because of their influence on the 7Li cosmological abundances. Here, we determine the cross section of the (n, ) reaction by using Trojan Horse experimental data for the 7Li(p, )4He reaction and correcting for Coulomb effects. The deduced 7Be(n, )4He data overlap with the Big Bang nucleosynthesis energies and the deduced reaction rate allows us to evaluate the corresponding cosmological implications.
