3He(alpha,gamma)7Be cross section at low energies
read the original abstract
The flux of 7Be and 8B neutrinos from the Sun and the production of 7Li via primordial nucleosynthesis depend on the rate of the 3He(alpha,gamma)7Be reaction. In extension of a previous study showing cross section data at 127 - 167 keV center of mass energy, the present work reports on a measurement of the 3He(alpha,gamma)7Be cross section at 106 keV performed at Italy's Gran Sasso underground laboratory by the activation method. This energy is closer to the solar Gamow energy than ever reached before. The result is sigma = 0.567 +- 0.029(stat) +- 0.016(syst) nbarn. The data are compared with previous activation studies at high energy, and a recommended S(0) value for all 3He(alpha,gamma)7Be activation studies, including the present work, is given.

Light nuclei under magnetic field and the lithium problem
Magnetic fields linearly change the exponential decay rate of light-nucleus wave functions, which the authors argue could enhance low-energy fusion reactions and, at implausibly high field strengths, affect the Big Ba...
