Boron of natural composition was irradiated to measure the cross section function of the {sup nat}B(p,x){sup 7}Be nuclear reaction. The reaction is very important from the point of view of Thin Layer Activation (TLA) technique to monitor the wear of boron containing superhard materials (e.g. BN). The aim was to determine the cross section of above reaction in the energy region used in wear measurements because practically there is no cross section data available below 10 MeV.
