Abstract
We present a comparison between the screened hybrid density functional theory of Heyd, Scuseria, and Enzerhof (HSE06) and high-resolution photoemission (PES) measurement on a single crystal of UO2. Angle-resolved photoemission data show a slight dispersion in the f-orbital derived bands in good agreement with the HSE band structure. The effect of spin-orbit coupling on the HSE band gap has also been calculated and found to be negligible.
