Comment on "187Re(gamma,n) cross section close to and above the neutron threshold"

Abstract

The work of Müller et al. [Phys. Rev. C 73, 025804 (2006); astro-ph/0512603] provides interesting experimental data on neutron emission by photodisintegration of 187Re. However, the comparison to theory and the discussed implications for the Re/Os clock require considerable amendment.
