Abstract
The radioactive Ba isotopes were produced by 60 MeV/u~(18)O ion bombardment of natural uranium. Ba was separated from U and the reaction product mixture by BaCl_(2) precipitation. The Ba fraction was measured by off-line γ-ray spectroscopy. The cross sections of the individual Ba isotope were calculation based on the intensities of the character γ-ray peaks of Ba isotopes and other relative information. It was found that the n-deficient Ba isotopes have higher cross sections using the thick uranium targets.
