The 9Be(α,n)12C reaction determines the rate for neutron-catalyzed helium burning and thus plays an important role in supernovae ejecta under α- and n-rich conditions which may lead to the r process. Cross sections for this reaction have been measured for 0.16<=Ec.m.<=1.87 MeV using a 4π neutron detector, and are used to calculate the thermonuclear reaction rates for temperatures between 0.1 and 10 GK. During these measurements, the thick-target yields were determined for 0.50<=Eα<=2.30 MeV, the stopping powers for α's in beryllium determined for 0.24<=Eα<=2.12 MeV, and the 9Be(p,p) elastic scattering cross sections measured at θlab=142.4° for 2.34<=Ep<=2.66 MeV.
