Abstract
We present a critical review of recent and partly unpublished spectroscopie data of UO2. The experimental results are compared with Haber-Born and molecular cluster calculations. The long existing controversy about the electronic structure of UO2 is solved and the strong similarities to the europium chalcogenides are demonstrated. On the other hand relevant differences between these 4f and 5f compounds are shown to exist for intra f-transitions and multiphonon excitationsKeywords
