The development of coincidence spectrometers with multivariable detect
ion techniques, higher energy kinematics, monochromated and spin-polar
ised electron sources, will usher in a new generation of electron mome
ntum spectroscopy revealing new electronic phenomena in atoms, molecul
es and solids. This will be enhanced by developments in target prepara
tion, such as spin polarised, oriented and aligned atoms and molecules
, radicals, surfaces and strongly correlated systems in condensed matt
er.
