We investigate {sup 6}Li(n,n{sup '}){sup 6}Li{sup *}{yields}d+{alpha} reactions by using the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method with the complex Jeukenne-Lejeune-Mahaux effective nucleon-nucleon interaction. In this study, the {sup 6}Li nucleus is described by a d+{alpha} cluster model. The calculated elastic cross sections for incident energies between 7.47 and 24.0 MeV are in good agreement with experimental data. Furthermore, we show that the neutron spectra for {sup 6}Li breakup states measured at selected angular points and incident energies can be also reproduced systematically.
