The cross-sections of the 13C(3He,px)15N reactions for x = 0...15 and reaction angles of 135∘ and 175∘ and the 13C(3He,d0)14N reaction for a reaction angle of 135∘ have been measured for energies from 1.5 to 6 MeV using an amorphous hydrocarbon (a–13C:H) thin film on silicon and chromium substrates. The cross-sections were determined relative to the Rutherford scattering cross-section of 3He from a thin gold layer. The calculated uncertainties range from 2 to 7% for 135∘ and 3 to 15% for 175∘. The determined cross-sections agree within the uncertainties with previous works and were benchmarked against spectra obtained using thick porous carbon-13 targets. The results are presented in graphical and tabular form.
