Here we report the electronic structure of praseodymium filled skutterudite compound PrOs₄Sb₁₂. The theoretical photoemission spectrum (PES) at ћω = 21.2 eV shows four distinct structures peaking at about –0.2, –7.7, –13.7 and –18.2 eV. But on increasing the photon energy to 40.8 eV, the peak at –0....
