Revised Primordial Helium Abundance Based on New Atomic Data
Open accessAbstract
We have derived a primordial helium abundance of Y p = 0.2477 ± 0.0029, based on new atomic physics computations of the recombination coefficients of He I and of the collisional excitation of the H I Balmer lines together with observations and photoionization models of metal-poor extragalactic H II regions. The new atomic data increase our previous determination of Y p by 0.0086, a very significant amount. By combining our Y p result with the predictions made by the standard big bang nucleosynthesis model, we find a baryon-to-photon ratio, η, in excellent agreement both with the η-value derived by the primordial deuterium abundance value observed in damped Lyα systems and with the one obtained from the WMAP observations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
