Single electron-capture cross sections have been measured for boron ions B/sup q/+ with initial charges q=2, 3, and 4 incident on an atomic hydrogen target. The cross sections sigma/sub 21/ and sigma/sub 43/ are large and show little dependence on the ion energy for the range studied, 6q to 23q keV. The cross section sigma/sub 32/ increases with increasing energy in this same range. Also reported is a survey of single electron-capture cross sections for ions of carbon (2< or =q< or =4), nitrogen (2< or =q< or =5), and oxygen (2< or =q< or =5) at the single energies 8q keV also incident on atomic hydrogen.
