N4,5 x-ray absorption spectroscopy of α-plutonium
A detailed analysis of all of the extant data for the N4,5 x-ray absorption spectroscopy of α-plutonium is presented here. Branching ratios and 5f populations (n) are produced and discussed. The impact of the Ni L2,3 (2p3/2,1/2) spectral structure caused by the beamline optical components is presented and quantified.
