The various techniques of measuring Fermi surface parameters are briefly discussed in terms of application to actinide systems. Particular emphasis is given to the dHvA effect. Some general results found in the dHvA studies of actinide compounds are given. The dHvA effect has been measured in α-U and is presented in detail. None of the observed frequencies corresponds to closed surfaces. Results are compared to the calculations of Freeman, Koelling and Watson-Yang where qualitative agreement is observed
