Abstract
Sixteen atomic level energies in theL, M, N, andO shells of thorium have been measured by the electron spectroscopic method. The precision achieved in the measurements is better than one electron volt. The Fermi level is observed as an edge in the photo electron spectrum. A complete set of electron binding energies, based on electron spectroscopic data, is given.
