Competing Electronic Configurations for PuTe and New Insight on Plutonium Metal

J. J. Joyce, K. S. Graham, J. -X. Zhu +7

The electronic structure of plutonium metal and its compounds pose a grand challenge for a fundamental understanding of the Pu-5 electron character. For 30 years the plutonium c…

Extended Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance Study of the Heavy-Fermion Superconductor PuCoGa

G. Koutroulakis, H. Yasuoka, P. H. Tobash +3

PuCoGa has emerged as a prototypical heavy-fermion superconductor, with its transition temperature ( K) being the highest amongst such materials. Nonetheless, a…

Multiconfigurational nature of 5f orbitals in uranium and plutonium intermetallics

C. H. Booth, Yu Jiang, D. L. Wang +10

Uranium and plutonium's 5f electrons are tenuously poised between strongly bonding with ligand spd-states and residing close to the nucleus. The unusual properties of these element…

PuPt2In7: a computational and experimental investigation

H. B. Rhee, F. Ronning, J. -X. Zhu +8

Flux-grown single crystals of PuPtIn are characterized and found to be both non-superconducting and non-magnetic down to 2 K. The Sommerfeld specific heat coefficient of $\…
