For deuteron energies below 7 MeV, the evaluation of the differential cross sections of the /sup 3/H(d,n)/sup 4/He reaction was improved by including three associated /sup 4/He particle excitation functions between 4 and 11 MeV. Above 7 MeV, the scale agrees within error limits with that of a previous evaluation, and no energy-dependent systematic deviations between measured and predicted values are observed. However, deviations of up to 20% from the Liskien and Paulsen evaluation are observed. 3 figures, 1 table.
