Abstract
A recent Comment by P Mohr has discussed our results for 212Po within the statistical approach, presented in our paper. Following the comment, we have recalculated the 212Po half-lives at elevated temperatures and confirm that there is indeed a decrease in the half-lives with increasing ambient temperatures, however, it is not as large as we reported for this approach. The overestimate was due to a numerical error in one of the calculations. In this reply we provide further discussions, and a new table has been provided here and in a corrigendum.
P Mohr最近的一篇评论讨论了我们在论文中提出的统计方法中对212Po的结果。根据评论,我们重新计算了212Po在高温下的半衰期,并确认随着环境温度的升高,半衰期确实有所减少,但并不像我们报道的那样大。过高估计是由于其中一次计算中的数值错误造成的。在本答复中,我们提供了进一步的讨论,并在这里和更正中提供了新的表格。
