Chemical inertness is the key property of helium determining its solubility, distribution and accumulation kinetics in metals. Against all expectations, our ab initio calculations show a substantial chemical bonding between He and Be atoms in the hcp-Be matrix when He occupies a non-symmetric position in a basal plane.
