✦ Synopsis

Reply to Comments on ''Electronic and thermodynamic properties of B2-FeSi from first principles'' I thank E.C. Ekuma for the Comment [1] on our paper [2]. With respect to the question about the electronic band structure of B2-FeSi, I deliberated on this problem again and looked through the related references. I am deeply sorry for my negligence-without completely understanding the energy band concept, the analysis of the B2-FeSi energy band diagram is incorrect and leads to erroneous conclusions. But, I certify that my preceding work on the properties of B2-FeSi is rigorous and accurate. Therefore, the studies of the properties remain correct.
