This work aims at clarifying the puzzling magnetism of several U intermetallics, in particular the pressure-induced magnetism of UTe2. By an ab initio treatment of electronic correlations, the authors show that a momentum dependent f-d hybridization is responsible for the magnetic moments arising from the van Hove singularity of renormalized f electrons.
