Scientific paper

Results are presented from non-LTE calulcations of the Li I (670.776, 670.791 nm) wavelength resonance doublet profiles and equivalent widths. The partial linearization method was used to solve the non-LTE problem for the six-level lithium model atom and the opacities at the lithium bound-free transition frequencies were calculated by the absorption mean method. For the MASKKL model atmosphere, solar Li-7 abundances of 1.08 dex (LTE) and 1.21 dex (non-LTE) are obtained. In the spectrum of the K giant 9 Boo, the Li I resonance doublet is almost saturated.
