Abstract
Coupling High Energy Resolution Fluorescence Detection (HERFD) with electric dipole selection rules, the uranium 5f5/2 and 5f7/2 Unoccupied Densities of States (UDOS) have been determined in UF4, UO2 and UCd11. Striking changes were observed between UF4 (5f2) to UCd11 (5f3), consistent with the Intermediate Coupling Model. Results for UO2 were confirmed by Bremstrahlung Isochromat Spectroscopy (BIS). This new approach can be a powerful tool for shedding light on the hidden mysteries of Actinides 5f-electrons properties.
