The total neutron cross section of ⁵⁸Fe has been determined in the energy range from 7 to 325 keV by a transmission measurement using samples enriched in the ⁵⁸Fe isotope. The data have been shape-fitted by means of an R matrix multilevel formalism to extract resonance parameters for s and l > 0 wave resonances. The s-wave strength function was determined to S₀ = (4.3 ± 1.9) × 10^-4.
