Abstract
This article presents a brief survey of the basic applications of stable boron isotopes as materials with an altered isotope composition in cases where the differences between the nuclear properties of boron isotopes are used directly. The neutron flux transformation into heavy ionizing particles by means of the B10 (n, α)Li7 reaction and the large value of the effective thermal neutron cross section of this reaction make it possible to use B10 in medicine, nuclear studies, and radiation chemistry. The differences between the neutron cross sections of B10 and B11 make It possible to use these isotopes in reactor construction and, in particular, to use B10 in materials for control rods and reactor shields.
