title: Positron annihilation studies of the f-electron character in actinides.
abstract: Measurement of the angular correlation of the electron-positron annihilation radiation complemented with ab initio calculations can provide decisive information about the character of f electrons in actinide compounds. Our studies of the antiferromagnet UGa3 in the paramagnetic phase produce substantial evidence that an unconstrained f-electron itinerant description applies.
