Abstract
Density of electron states, exchange-enhanced spin susceptibility, and orbital magnetic susceptibility of plutonium in the region of existence of a stable δ phase have been calculated within a generalized s(p)df model that takes into account both the band motion of electrons and their on-site and intersite interactions. It is shown that splitting of the electron spectrum by fluctuating intrinsic exchange fields leads to the formation of temperature-induced local magnetic moments, temperature-dependent changes in the occupancies of d, f bands, and spin-fluctuation-induced charge fluctuations.
