The application of pressure as well as the substitution of Ru with Fe in the hidden order (HO) compound URu₂Si₂ lead to the formation of the large moment antiferromagnetic phase (LMAFM), with the respective phase diagrams bearing similarities for low Fe content (<0.3). For higher Fe content (>1) URu_(2−x)Fe_(x)Si₂ adopts the Pauli paramagnetic ground state of UFe₂Si₂. However, the question remains open what causes the suppression of HO in favour of the LMAFM phase. We investigate the URu_(2−x)Fe_(x)Si₂ series with 4f core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. The 4f satellite features are enhanced at low Fe content (x<0.4) and suppressed as x increases, following the trend shown by the ordered moment. We discuss this in terms of the variation of the filling of the 5f shell. Implications for the exchange interaction in a Doniach phase diagram picture are then also considered.
