The {sup 10}B and {sup 11}B neutron total cross sections have been measured in the 20 keV to 20 MeV neutron energy region. These cross sections are important for the R-matrix analysis of the mass 11 system and used to more accurately define the {sup 10}B(n,{alpha}) standard reaction. The {sup 10}B total cross section deviates by as much as 5% from the ENDF/B-VI evaluation in the neutron energy range below 2 MeV.
