Lithium abundance is a gravitational model dependent quantity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2021-02-24 v2 Solar and Stellar Astrophysics

Abstract

The dependence of lithium abundance on modified gravity in low-mass stellar objects is demonstrated. This may introduce an additional uncertainty to age determination techniques of young stars and globular clusters if they rely on the light element depletion method.
