Using time-of-flight techniques, we have measured neutron emission spectra from 6- and 10-MeV incident neutron energies on 10B and 11B for laboratory angles between 20 and 145 deg using the unique neutron source reaction 1H(t,n). Double-differential cross sections and their integrated values have been extracted for elastic and inelastic processes, and their integrated values are summarized. In cases where discrete scattering peaks could be analyzed, differential cross-section angular distributions have been extracted and are compared to other results and to evaluated nuclear data.
