Lanthanides studied include lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, and gadolinium; actinides are thorium and uranium. The results of their x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the satellites accompanying lanthanide 3d/sub 5/2/ and actinide 4d/sub 5/2/ signals are reported. Interpretation is based on the hypothesis that half-occupied f orbitals play an important role in the striking change of the satellite intensity throughout the f transition metal series. The binding energies of the main 3d/sub 5/2/ and 4d/sub 5/2/ peaks and their satellites are reported along with the intensity ratio of the satellie to the main line. 1 figure, 1 table.
