Standard big bang nucleosynthesis and primordial CNO abundances after Planck
@article{Coc2014StandardBB, title={Standard big bang nucleosynthesis and primordial CNO abundances after Planck}, author={Alain Coc and Jean-Philippe Uzan and Elisabeth Vangioni}, journal={Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics}, year={2014}, volume={2014}, pages={050-050} }
Primordial or big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) is one of the three historical strong evidences for the big bang model. The recent results by the Planck satellite mission have slightly changed the estimate of the baryonic density compared to the previous WMAP analysis. This article updates the BBN predictions for the light elements using the cosmological parameters determined by Planck, as well as an improvement of the nuclear network and new spectroscopic observations. There is a slight lowering…

It is shown that the observed Li versus Fe trend provides a strong discriminant between alternative models for Galactic chemical evolution of the light elements at early epochs and is limited as much by uncertainties in the nuclear cross sections used in big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) calculations as by the observed abundance itself.
