Description
The destruction of the $^7$Be nucleus is immensely important in studying the $^7$Li abundance anomaly. The relevant reaction rates, particularly the destruction of $^7$Be through resonance excitation in the transfer reaction $^7$Be (d,p) $^8$Be *, need to be measured with better accuracy before one can invoke solutions beyond nuclear physics. The T-REX detector array is suitable for such measurements. An experiment to that effect, IS 554 at HIE-ISOLDE, would be carried out. Preparation including simulation of that upcoming experiment will be presented.
