Abstract
Cross sections for the production of the light elements lithium, beryllium, and boron by proton bombardment of were measured for proton energies between 21.7 and 44.0 MeV. Time-of-flight methods were used to identify the masses of ions recoiling from a thin target into a semiconductor detector. The results are related to current models on the origin of these light elements, and are consistent with a suggestion that the / isotopic ratio has remained unaltered at its formation value.
