We present work on the N − N and 7Li systems that is relevant to the international effort to re‐evaluate the neutron standard cross sections. The R‐matrix analysis of the N − N system also determined the n‐p capture cross section for use in BBN modeling of light‐element abundances in the early universe with an uncertainty of less than 2.5 %. The R‐matrix results for the 6Li(n,t)4He cross section agree qualitatively with a microscopic RRGM calculation that uses semi‐realistic N‐N potentials. However, they disagree with some cross‐section measurements for the reaction, and with another evaluation.
