Cosmic Rays, Hydrostatic Stellar Nucleosynthesis

Scientific paper

The increase in observational data in recent years concerning the light elements Li, Be, and B has led us to reexamine the standard picture of their production through galactic cosmic-ray spallation. The recent observations in the Orion star forming region of strong gamma-ray emission lines of C and O indicate that the weak shocks and turbulence found in star forming regions lead to the acceleration of these elements. Interactions between fast C and O and the ambient H and He may in fact be the primary production mechanism of B and Be and not cosmic-ray reactions as has been previously thought.
