Popis: Polystyrene discs were irradiated in the scattered proton beam of the Birmingham synchrotron. The proton flux was found by counting tracks in a nuclear emulsion exposed near the polystyrene disc. From the observed activity of the discs the cross section for the production of 20.5 minute 11C from carbon by 950 MeV protons was found to be 20.5 ± 1.1 mbn. The variation of cross section over the energy range 200-950 MeV was also studied.
