Protostellar accretion and the cosmological lithium problem
  The cosmological lithium problem, i.e. the discrepancy between the lithium
abundance predicted by the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis and the one observed for
the stars of the "Spite plateau", is one of the long standing problems of
modern astrophysics. A possible astrophysical solution involves lithium burning
due to protostellar mass accretion on Spite plateau stars. In present work, for
the first time, we investigate with accurate evolutionary computations the
impact of accretion on the lithium evolution in the metal-poor regime, that
relevant for stars in the Spite plateau.
