The production of cold neutrons has been examined theoretically with a one-phonon plus two-phonon scattering kernel at temperatures down to 4°K. The results agree reasonably well with those from the experiments of Whittemore. It is observed that reducing the temperature below 40°K does not change the steady-state neutron spectrum significantly.
