A new measurement is presented of the 6 Li(n, α )t cross section from 245 keV to 10 MeV using a 252Cf fission chamber with 6 LiI(Eu) and Cs 2 LiYCl 6 :Ce (CLYC) scintillators which act as both target and detector. Neutron energies are determined from the time of flight (TOF) method using the signals from spontaneous fission and reaction product recoil. Simulations of neutron downscatter in the crystals and fission chamber bring 6 Li(n, α )t cross section values measured with the 6 LiI(Eu) into agreement with previous experiments and evaluations, except for two resonances at 4.2 and 6.5 MeV introduced by ENDF/B-VII.1. Suspected neutron transport modeling issues cause the cross section values obtained with CLYC to be discrepant above 2 MeV.
