13. A system similar to ours allowing for SP-PES and IPES has been recently described [S.-W. Yu, J. Tobin, and B. Chung, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 82, 093903 (2011)]. It was however focused on actinides and not on ferromagnetic films; moreover, no spin resolution was present for the empty part of the electronic states. 10.1063/1.3638464
