| Abstract: | Recently, it was demonstrated that an empirical model based on bremsstrahlung isochromat spectroscopy of elemental thorium (Th) could be used to explain the experimental results and unoccupied 5f electronic structure for simple localized actinide systems with n = ⅔, 2, 3, and 5, where n is the 5f occupancy. Here, the thorium model will be extended to provide an understanding of the observed behavior and unoccupied 5f electronic structure in the uranium monochalcogenide systems of uranium sulfide and uranium telluride, in terms of weak 5f delocalization.
