Reply to comments on `Structure effects in the ¹⁵N(n,γ)¹⁶N radiative capture reaction from the Coulomb dissociation of ¹⁶N'

We reply to the comments (arXiv:1605.07499 [nucl-th]) on "Structure effects in the $^{15}$N($n,\gamma$)$^{16}$N radiative capture reaction from the Coulomb dissociation of $^{16}$N". We have investigated the issue of "energy dependence of branching ratios" and believe that this energy dependence is due to the proper inclusion of the non-resonant continuum in the post-form reaction theory. Interestingly, this energy dependence is sensitive to the relative orbital angular momentum content of the state. We reiterate that we have attempted to resolve the discrepancy in the spectroscopic factors of low-lying $^{16}$N levels and that it is essential to know the low energy $^{15}$N($n,\gamma$)$^{16}$N capture cross section, especially below 0.25 MeV.
