✦ Synopsis

Results of a fully relativistic study of angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) for the (1 0 0) surfaces of Ag and Au are presented.

The calculations are based on FLAPW thin film potentials and a single-step model of photoemission. The results for Ag are compared with experimental data and a previous non-relativistic calculation.

In the case of Au A0 and A, initial state symmetries are investigated using linearly and circularly polarized light.
