The primordial Lithium Problem is intimately connected to the assumption that ${}^{7}{\rm Li}$ observed in metal-poor halo stars retains its primordial abundance, which lies significantly below the predictions of standard big-bang…

Motivated by the recent report of a $^6$Li detection in the atmosphere of HD~84937, we couple stellar evolution calculations with light isotope production via stellar flares. We find that as a consequence of their small convective envelope…

The depletion of lithium during the pre-main sequence and main sequence phases of stellar evolution plays a crucial role in the comparison of the predictions of big bang nucleosynthesis with the abundances observed in halo stars. In the…

Very high-quality spectra of 24 metal-poor halo dwarfs and subgiants have been acquired with ESO's VLT/UVES for the purpose of determining Li isotopic abundances. The derived 1D, non-LTE 7Li abundances from the LiI 670.8nm line reveal a…

Light element ($^6$Li, $^7$Li and $^9$Be) depletion isochrones for halo stars have been calculated with standard stellar evolution models. These models include the latest available opacities and are computed through the sub-giant branch. If…

High resolution (R=110000), very high S/N spectra, centered on the 6707.8A LiI line have been obtained with the ESO Coude Echelle Spectrometer for five, metal-poor (-0.8 < [Fe/H] < -0.6) disk stars in the turnoff region of the HR-diagram.…

The primordial abundances of Deuterium, he4, and li7 are crucial to determination of the baryon density of the Universe in the framework of standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). li6 which is only produced in tiny quantities and it is…

Current three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamical model atmospheres together with NLTE spectrum synthesis, permit to derive reliable atomic and isotopic chemical abundances from high-resolution stellar spectra. Not much is known about the…

We have obtained a high-S/N (900-1100), high-resolving-power (R=95000) spectrum of the metal-poor subgiant HD 140283 in an effort to measure its 6Li/7Li isotope ratio. From a 1-D atmospheric analysis, we find a value consistent with zero,…

Two problems are discussed here. The first one is the 0.4 dex discrepancy between the 7Li abundance derived from the spectra of metal-poor halo stars on the one hand, and from Big Bang nucleosynthesis, based on the cosmological parameters…

Motivated by the recent report of a high Li6 ``plateau'' extending to low metallicities in Galactic halo stars, we study the energetics of an early production of Li6 through the interaction of energetic particles with the interstellar…

Lithium is one of the few primordially produced elements. The value of the primordial Li is taken to be that observed in metal--poor dwarfs, where it is not contaminated by stellar Li sources which act on longer time scales. The atmospheric…

We discuss the 6Li abundance evolution within a hierarchical model of Galaxy formation which correctly reproduces the [Fe/H] distribution of metal-poor halo stars. Contrary to previous findings, we find that neither the level…

The presence of 6Li in the atmospheres of metal-poor halo stars is usually inferred from the detection of a subtle extra depression in the red wing of the 7Li doublet line at 670.8 nm. However, the intrinsic line asymmetry caused by…

The detection of $^6$Li in Spite plateau stars contradicts the standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis prediction, known as the second cosmological lithium problem. We measure the isotopic ratio $^6$Li/$^7$Li in three Spite plateau stars: HD…

I consider the synthesis of 6Li due to the decay of relic particles, such as gravitinos or moduli, after the epoch of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. The synthesized 6Li/H ratio may be compared to 6Li/H in metal-poor stars which, in the absence…

The presence of the lithium-6 isotope in some metal-poor stars is a matter of surprise because of the high values observed. Non-standard models of Big Bang nucleosynthesis and pre-Galactic cosmic ray fusion and spallation have been proposed…

We present Li abundances for 73 stars in the metallicity range -3.5 < [Fe/H] < -1.0 using improved IRFM temperatures (Casagrande et al. 2010) with precise E(B-V) values obtained mostly from interstellar NaI D lines, and high-quality…

The recently claimed observations of non-negligible amounts of 6Li in old halo stars have renewed interest in the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) of 6Li. One important ingredient in the predicted BBN abundance of 6Li is the low-energy…

A large number of stellar evolution models with [Fe/H] = -2.3 and -3.3 have been calculated in order to determine the primordial $^7$Li abundance and to test current stellar evolution models by a comparison to the extensive database of Li…
