Abstract

A discrepancy exists between the 6Li abundances predicted from big bang nucleosynthesis models and those measured in pre-main sequence stars. To further constrain the predicted abundances of 6Li in these stars, high accuracy measurements are required of reactions destroying 6Li, namely 6Li(p,γ) 7Be and 6Li(p,α) 3He. Their reaction cross-sections were recently measured at astrophysically relevant energies at the Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics (LUNA). I present both the experimental setup and current status of the data analysis.
