From these astronomical data we determine, for the first time, the magnetic-dipole hfs constants A_{1/2}^{hf} = 810.71(11) MHz and A_{3/2}^{hf} = 162.18(5) MHz of the [^{13}C II] 2s^2 2p ^2P^o ground term.
The velocity distribution, excitation conditions, and line-of-sight structure are identical for the [12C II] and [13C II] emitting gas, so that the [12C II] profile can be used as an unshifted reference template for fitting the [13C II] hyperfine components without additional differential broadening or velocity offsets.
SOFIA observations provide the first experimental magnetic-dipole hyperfine constants for [13C II] and refined centroid frequency using astronomical data.
