Abstract
Recent experimental work on (e,eγ) and (e,2e) coincidences involving polarized electrons is reviewed. The origin of the observed spin asymmetries are exchange effects, spin-orbit interaction of the continuum electrons and spin-orbit coupling within the target in conjunction with orbital orientation and exchange. These mechanisms are explained in some detail. Experimental and theoretical investigations have been performed for excitation and ionization of outer-shell electrons as well as for ionization of inner-shell electrons.
