The He I photoelectron spectrum of atomic uranium has been recorded in the vapor phase. Bands associated with metal (6d)/sup -1/, (7s)/sup -1/, and (5f)/sup -1/ ionizations were observed. The relative intensities of the (6d)/sup -1/ and (5f)/sup -1/ bands are consistent with computed relative cross sections at the He I energy, whereas the intensity of the (7s)/sup -1/ band is larger than expected from computed cross sections, implying enhancement of this feature by autoionization effects. HeI photoelectron spectra have also been recorded for the vapor above a heated equimolar UO/sub 2/(s):U(s) mixture. By studying the spectra obtained as a function of temperature, bands associated with UO and UO/sub 2/ were identified and these were assigned using relativistic Hartree--Fock--Slater calculations on these molecules.
