AB  - We report a high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) study of the prototypical nearly free-electron metal sodium. The observed mass enhancement is slightly smaller than that derived in previous studies. The new results on the lifetime broadening increase the demand for theories beyond the random phase approximation. Our results do not support the proposed strong enhancement of the scattering rates of the charge carriers due to a coupling to spin fluctuations. Moreover, a comparison with earlier electron energy-loss data on sodium yields a strong reduction of the mass enhancement of dipolar electron-hole excitations compared to that of monopole hole excitations, measured by ARPES.
