Neutron induced reaction studies on various unstable and short-lived nuclei play a very important role in understanding the various nucleosynthesis processes occuring in astrophysics scenario. We discuss here our approach to study neutron induced charge particle cross-section for various unstable and short-lived nuclei at effective temperatures of ~1.5-3.5 GK using the 7Li(p, n) reaction as a neutron source with five orders of magnitude higher neutron intensities with respect to currently available neutron time-of-flight facilities, using SARAF accelarator and Liquid Lithium Target (LiLiT) facility.
