Scientific paper

We modify the standard code of primordial nucleosynthesis to include plasma effects: (1) Plasmons (oscillations near the Langmuir frequency); and (2) The zero frequency fluctuations predicted by the Fluctuation Dissipation Theorem (FDT). We found a change in the He-4 yield, delta Y/Y approximately 10-3 for the plasmons and delta Y/Y approximately 10-4 for FDT. The result for the case of plasmons, for example, is an order of magnitude higher than the most recent correction to the He-4 abundance.
