Abstract
Electron-momentum spectroscopy (EMS) provides the most direct experimental tests of the validity of the concepts of atomic and molecular orbitals so crucial to chemists in interpreting the electronic structure of matter. This note summarizes a review of EMS published recently by Vos and McCarthy in the American Journal of Physics. In their review they present EMS results for simple molecular systems and atomic, metallic, and ionic solids.
