Phys. Rev. C 71, 059803 (2005) [2 pages]Reply to “Comment on ‘Hadronic production of thermal photons’”Received 21 December 2004; published 24 May 2005 We address a recent comment by Alam et al. [Phys. Rev. C 71, 059802 (2005)], on our work of thermal photon emission rates from hadronic matter. Specifically, we explain how t-channel ω exchange in the πρ→πγ reaction arises as a dominant contribution to the rates at high energy and why hadronic form factors cannot be neglected in this assessment. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
