In this work, we model the\u00a06Li and\u00a07Li abundances of different giants after the engulfment of a substellar mass companion. Given that\u00a06Li is more strongly affected by Galactic chemical evolution than\u00a07Li,\u00a06Li is not a good discriminant at low metallicities, where it is expected to be low in both star and planet. For higher metallicities,\u00a06Li increases significantly after the engulfment of a companion. However, at metallicities close to solar and higher, the\u00a06Li signal does not last long in the stellar surface. As such, a detection of 6Li in such stars could hint towards a recent engulfment event. We conclude that\u00a06Li should not be used to reject the hypothesis of engulfment in a\u00a07Li-enriched giant or to support a particular\u00a07Li-enhancement mechanism.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aguilera-G\u00f3mez, C., Chanam\u00e9, J. &#038; Pinsonneault, M.
