Survival of 6li and 7li in Metal-Poor Stars

Abstract

The relationship between the respective depletion factors for 6Li and 7Li in metal-poor stars is studied for two simple models of depletion by nuclear burning by mixing with deeper layers, below the bottom of the convective zone. The depletion of 6Li is usually much larger than the depletion of 7Li because it occurs during the pre-mainsequence already.
