Measurements of the neutron total and capture cross sections of Am-241 have been performed using a time-of-flight method with a Li-glass detector and Ge spectrometers located on the ANNRI of the MLF in the J-PARC. The neutron total cross sections of Am-241 were determined in the neutron energy region from 4 meV to 2 eV. Comparisons of the present result with previous experimental data and evaluations were made. This contribution presents the obtained results.
