The excitation functions of the 8Li(d,t)7Li and the 8Li(d,p)9Li reactions were directly measured using 8Li beams with Ecm = 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.7, 0.8, 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 MeV irradiating CD2 targets. These beam energies covered the Gamow peaks for 1-3×109 K. Large cross sections were observed at around Ecm = 0.8 MeV for the 8Li(d,t)7Li and Ecm = 1.0 MeV for the 8Li(d,p)9Li, implying the existence of a resonant state of 10Be at the excitation energy of around 22.4 MeV. Enhanced with the present work, the astrophysical reaction rates of the 8Li(d,t)7Li and the 8Li(d,p)9Li reactions are higher by one and two orders of magnitude than the previously evaluated ones, respectively.
