Abstract
The electron hole spectral width of Ti states in layered and the inverse lifetime of the photoelectron final states are determined from experiment within the one-step theory of photoemission. The condition for the possibility of separating the effects of and is a strongly non-free-electron character of the final states. The resulting drastic changes of the line shape with photon energy are experimentally observed and explained by an ab initio theory. A nonmonotonic dependence of on the final-state energy is observed; it is shown to reveal the real space structure of the complex electron self-energy.
