Abstract

A fundamental problem in cosmic-ray physics is the production and propagation of Be. We have measured the cross section at 740 MeV for

{}^{7}{Be}

production in N(10.9 mb ± 6%), C(9.82 mb ± 6%),

{}^{11}B

(4.17 mb ± 7%), and

{}^{10}B

(6.28 mb ± 7%). The monitor reactions were C(

{}^{11}C

= 29.9 mb ± 5% and the C(

{}^{7}{Be}

cross section listed above.
