Abstract

Total cross sections for production of 22Na and 24Na from the irradiation of 27Al by protons with incident energies between 0.40 and 22.4 GeV have been measured. The overall uncertainties for these measurements were less than 3%. The measured values compare well with previous measurements and evaluations.
