Gregory's Server@vicgrinberg I thought a fair bit of beryliium was formed from Li₇ + H₂ -> Be₉ or Li₆ + H₃ -> Be₉ or is stellar Be just burned up in heavier fusion processes?

@vicgrinberg Honestly, it's just what I remem,ber from astrophysics back in Uni a LONG time ago. I did a little reading to see if I was wrong and the answer seemed ambiguous. :)  @TheWerewolf you are nor wrong that these are in theory possible reactions, but as said, the reaction rates are going to be super low if existent at all. @vicgrinberg Thank you for the clarification. I was wondering why Li/Be and B were so low - this explains it. :) |
@TheWerewolf the main berillyium isotope produced in stars is Be10 as an intermediate step towards C. The reactions you list are theoretically possible, but hardly ever happen in stars (low reaction rates) - thb, I'd need to look up whether they would produce energy at all. Where do you have them from?
