The absolute differential cross sections for the {sup 3}He({gamma},n)pp reaction were measured as a function of outgoing neutron scattering angle and energy at the incident {gamma}-ray energies of 12.8, 13.5, and 14.7 MeV to within a precision better than {+-}6%. Both the absolute cross sections and the neutron energy distributions at each incident {gamma}-ray energy agree with the state-of-the-art theoretical results when the Coulomb interaction in the final state is included.
