Abstract
Splittings of atomic core levels caused by internal electric field gradients have been observed in compounds of Th, U, and Pu by means of photoelectron and internal-conversion spectroscopy. The magnitude of the splitting varies with the element and specific compound examined, and it may be considerably enhanced by application of a strong external field.
