The neutron capture cross-sections of Sr-86, Sr-87, and Ge-70 have been measured for the first time by time-of-flight in the energy range from 340 to 240 keV. The measurements were carried out in order to improve the data base for s-process nucleosynthesis studies in the mass region A less than 100. The neutron source used to initiate capture was the Li-7(p,n)Be-7 reaction, and a Van de Graaff accelerator was used to excite the neutrons. Maxwellian averaged cross sections at 20, 30, 40, and 50 keV are given in a table. It is shown that the value of 74 (+ or - 5 mb) for the 30 keV capture cross section of Sr-86 is in agreement with the results of Hicks et al. (1982).
