Abstract: Single ionization of noble-gas atoms by linearly polarized synchrotron radiation has been studied by employingangle- and energy-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The measurements were carried out in the plane definedby the momentum and polarization vectors of the photon. Parameters describing the left-right asymmetry(LRA; relative to the photon propagation direction) of the photoelectron angular distribution were determinedexperimentally for the s shells of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe atoms and H2 molecules and for the p shells of Ne, Ar,Kr, and Xe atoms. The values of the left-right asymmetry differ significantly from zero for both subshells. Thephoton and photoelectron energy dependence of the LRA parameters is presented also. Possible experimentaland instrumental sources that could generate asymmetry are discussed and excluded as well.
