Abstract: Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) was used for determining the crystalline electric field (CEF) energy level scheme of the heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn5. The orbital fluctuations contributing to superconductivity are affected by the shape of the f orbitals under the influence of the CEF.
