stickmakerAll other elements seem to follow the laws of physics when it comes to their abundance in the universe. However, there is only a third as much lithium 7 as these same laws predict.
Theorists have been working on this problem for decades, but all they have managed to do is A) Confirm that there should be *this* much lithium 7 and B) Show that there is only about a third of that amount.
Explanations are getting deep into exotic boson theory and equally esoteric concerns.
So, what if these studies reveal an unexpected interaction between lithium 7 - especially a di-atomic allotrope - and matter-antimatter reactions? :-)
