概要 X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) experiments were performed at the Np M-4,M-5 and the Ga K absorption edges of NpNiGa5 to investigate the temperature-dependent changes of magnetic properties of Np 5f and Ga 4p electron states. By the sum-rule analysis of the Np M-4,M-5 XMCD data, the orbital magnetic moment mu(L) and the spin magnetic moment mu(S) were estimated for the Np 5f(3) and 5f(4) electronic configurations and their comparison to the previous magnetization and neutron-scattering experiments suggests that the 5f(4) configuration is more likely than the 5f(3) configuration in NpNiGa5. It was found that vertical bar mu(L)/mu(S)vertical bar tends to increase from the high-temperature low-moment ordered state to the low-temperature high-moment ordered state. The result of the Ga K XMCD indicates that the Ga 4p electrons are magnetically polarized and the temperature and magnetic-field dependences of the Ga 4p orbital moment are proportional to those of the magnetization measurements.
