Abstract

At the early stage of the Universe evolution, when photons and neutrinos are no longer able to prevent nucleosynthesis, the key role is given to neutron component of matter. Neutron component creates a certain variety of the lightest chemical elements and disappears leaving a sufficient portion of Helium isotopes and some tiny portions of Li and Be isotopes. Free neutrons disappear in energetic flame of these reactions not using even a quarter of their own lifetime. Further the Universe matter has been evolving smoothly without free neutrons. The following physical principle is taken as a basis: interactions of the most fast component in speed are considered as main and taken into account first. Substance component that meets this requirement provides a thermodynamic equilibrium in the system. It is obvious that fast component of the substance is the neutrons. Other components cause slow change as compared with actions of the main one. Thermodynamic description of nucleus matter is carried out in the same way as it is made in the well-known problem of ``ionization equilibrium'' of atomic plasma.
