Scientific paper

The 12C( alpha , gamma )16O reaction rate has been reevaluated using recently published cross section estimates. The results suggest that the temperature dependence of the reaction rate as given by Caughlan & Fowler should be revised, even though the absolute cross section of 12C( alpha , gamma )16O still needs a better determination at low energies. Values for the stellar reaction rate of 12C( alpha , gamma )16O have been calculated for a recommended cross section as well as for the experimental upper and lower limits of the cross section. In addition, analytic expressions for these reaction rates are given for 0.03 <= T9 <= 2.
