The 13C(d,n) and 14C(d,n) cross sections have been measured for 0.2≤Ec.m.≤2.1 MeV and 0.2≤Ec.m.≤1.3 MeV, respectively, using a 4π neutron detector. The cross sections are used to calculate the thermonuclear reaction rates for temperatures below 10 GK. The implications of these and other new nuclear-physics results for inhomogeneous primordial nucleosynthesis are discussed.
