Yes, true. I found a list. Some of the side reactions I found were

p+B11->C12+gamma
p+B11->n+C11
He4+B11->n+N14
He4+B11->p+C14
He4+B11->T+C12
B11+B11->Junk
and Possible B10 impurities

But, the goal is bountiful p+B11->3 He4 + 8.7 Mev reactions. How are these going to be measured? How will it be known that they are happening?
