In this contribution we discuss surface related spectral features of bcc W(110) by means of angle- and spin-resolved photoemission. For more than thirty years Tungsten serves as a prototypical material for studying spin-orbit effects in simple metals. Also, it is used for a quite long time in electron polarimeters [1]. Nevertheless, there still remain some pecularities in its electronic structure concerning surface emission. It is known that a surface resonance exists on W(110) dispersing around Γ in the vicinity of the Fermi level [2]. But not much is understood concerning surface emission for higher binding energies. From our investigation we found that surface emission dominates the E(k) intensity distribution measured along Γ N. The spin analysis reveals a Rashba-like behavior for features related to the spin-orbit induced symmetry gap existing at Γ. The theoretical analysis has been performed in the framework of the fully relativistic version of the one-step model of photoemission [3].
