Compton scattering and measurements of the angular correlation of electron-positron annihilation radiation (ACAR) offer two unique possibilities for the investigation of the bulk electronic structure. Although both methods allow the measurement of the electron momentum distribution (EMD) various differences are inherent to the respective technique. While a single ACAR spectrum provides a two-dimensional projection of the EMD a Compton scattering profile corresponds to a one-dimensional projections. Besides dissimilar experimental resolution further differences originate from the influence of the positron wave function and the enhancement of different electron states (probe effects). We applied both techniques to the correlated system Palladium in order to study its electronic structure, and we present the specific features inherent to Compton scattering and ACAR.
