The cross section for the reaction /sup 6/Li + /sup 6/Li ..-->.. /sup 7/Be + /sup 4/He + n + 1.91 MeV has been measured at effective energies of 5.0, 3.5, and 1.6 MeV. The resulting large cross sections are 178 +- 6.4, 93.4 +- 6.0, and 3.89 +- 0.39 mb, respectively. Irradiations of /sup 6/LiF targets were performed with a 6.0-MeV /sup 6/Li-ion beam at the 88-in. cyclotron of the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory.
