✦ Synopsis

An overview is given of the use of electron spectroscopy, particularly photoemission, to probe strongly correlated electron systems (SCES). Past and present studies of f-electron materials, and of high T c and other low-dimensional materials are discussed from two related general viewpoints, (1) the emergence of low energy scale physics from high energy scale fluctuations, and (2) the possibility that the low energy scale physics of some systems is not that of a Fermi liquid (FL).
