Fermi-Surface Mapping from 2D Positron Annihilation Data

We demonstrate which kind of information on the electronic structure one can get from one-dimensional profiles, interpreted in terms of two-dimensional reconstructed densities. The conversion from one-dimensional to two-dimensional is applied to one-dimensional angular correlation of annihilation radiation profiles of divalent hexagonal close packed metals Mg and Cd. On the example of Mg we show that one should be very careful while studying the Fermi surface from electron-positron (e-p) densities folded into the first Brillouin zone
