Abstract = {{In their Comment to our recent paper {[}Phys. Rev. B 73, 035111 (2006)],
   Muller and Hufner proposed a comparison of our Mn L(2),(3) resonant
   inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) data with low-energy electron
   energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) measurements. The differences in the
   experimental spectra highlighted by the authors can be easily ascribed
   to the different cross sections in the two techniques, even when they
   probe the same subset of excited states, namely, the dd excitations. One
   important difference is that EELS is limited to quartet final states
   only, whereas RIXS can lead to doublets, too. Thus our theoretical
   interpretation of the RIXS spectra, made within two different models, is
   compatible with the traditional crystal-field analysis of EELS. As the
   Sugano-Tanabe diagram usually do not include the 3d spin-orbit and the
   interatomic superexchange interactions, their accuracy is limited to
   hundreds of meV and they should be utilized only for rough assignments
   of the spectral features. On the contrary, by calculating the RIXS
   spectral shape we could address more sophisticated models with
   remarkable agreement to the experimental results. This is hardly
   possible in the case of low-energy EELS, for which reliable simulations
   of the spectra are much more difficult.}},
