Presented is a compilation of stellar nuclear reaction rates
for light, intermediate mass, and heavy nuclei
used in calculations of stellar nucleosynthesis. These are intended to
replace the reaction rate compilation developed by R. Hoffman and
S. Woosley (version 92.1, 1992).

For comparison to solar abundances we provide:
- Mass fractions for all stable isotopes.
- Useful fortran data statements.

Strong and electromagnetic reaction rates are tabulated
at 14 stellar temperatures, including:
- Temperature dependent nuclear partition functions.
- Binary reactions involving neutrons, protons, alpha particles, or photons incident on target nuclei between H and Bi.
- Special reactions involving deuterons, tritons, 3He, and many-body reactions.
- Heavy-ion reactions involving 12C and 16O.
- 30 keV neutron capture cross sections.

Stellar weak reaction rates are tabulated at 9 stellar temperatures and six densities, including:
- Ground state weak decay rates.
- Temperature dependent ground plus first excited state weak decay rates.
- Temperature and density dependent weak decay rates on nucleons and nuclei.

Neutrino interaction rates include:
- Neutrino loss rates from thermal processes.
- Neutral and charged current neutrino cross sections/nucleon.
- Neutral and charged current branching ratios.
