Ultrafast optical spectroscopy is used to study the antiferromagnetic $f$-electron system ${\mathrm{USb}}_{2}$. We observe the opening of two charge gaps at low temperatures ($\ensuremath{\lesssim}45\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{K}$), arising from renormalization of the electronic structure. Analysis of our data indicates that one gap is due to hybridization between localized $f$-electron and conduction …
