PHOTOELECTRON SPECTROSCOPY OF ACTINIDE-CONTAINING SYSTEMS.
Abstract
The present status of photoelectron spectroscopy of actinide systems is reviewed with particular emphasis on the achievements obtained in several laboratories since the Actinides 81 conference in Asilomar. The following topics are addressed: (1) the manifestation of 'itinerant' and 'localized' 5f electronic states in photoemission spectra; (2) the possibility of the specific properties of 5f heavy-fermion systems being revealed by photoemission; (3) bulk versus surface electronic properties of actinide systems; (4) comparison with band-structure calculations; (5) correlation effects of 5f electrons, i. e. satellites in photoemission spectra. A short introduction into angle-resolved and resonant photoemission is given.
