Abstract

Spin-effects were studied in the (e,2e) scattering from W(110) single crystal and thin gold layer on W(110). Intensity asymmetry observed in the spectra using spin-polarised incident beam were identified as spin-orbit interaction in the valence electron states involved in the scattering with the contribution of orbital momentum of incident electrons.
