Revised Cross Section of the 13C(α,n)16O reaction between 5 and 8 MeV
Peter Mohr
(Submitted on 7 Jun 2018)

     As suggested in a Comment by Peters, Phys.\ Rev.\ C {\bf 96}, 
029801 (2017), a correction is applied to the 13C(α,n)16O data of 
Harissopulos {\it et al.}, Phys.\ Rev.\ C {\bf 72}, 062801(R) (2005). 
The correction refers to the energy-dependent efficiency of the neutron 
detector and appears only above the (α,n1) threshold of the 13C(α,n)16O 
reaction at about Eα≈5 MeV. The corrected data are lower than the 
original data by almost a factor of two. The correction method is 
verified using recent neutron spectroscopy data and data from the 
reverse 16O(n,α)13C reaction.
