We have measured the spectral momentum density p(E,q) of graphite by (e,2e) spectroscopy for momentum parallel and perpendicular to the crystal c axis. In the independent-electron approximation, p(E,q) = Σ_G |U_k(G)|² δ(q-k-G)δ(E-E(k)) where the one-electron wave function is Ψ_k(r) = e^ik•rΣ_GU_k(G)e^iG•r and G is a reciprocal-lattice vector. The measurements covered a range of momentum parallel to the c axis equal to 0 ≤ |q| ≤ 1.84Å^-1 and a …
