Abstract

The cross-section of ⁸ Li(,n)¹¹ B has been measured at = 1.25 MeV to be mb using novel techniques, i.e. a ⁸ Li radioactive ion beam produced at the tandem in Catania in combination with a ⁴ He gas cell and a neutron detector. The value is in fair agreement with previous work strengthening the model of inhomogeneous Big Bang nucleosynthesis.
