Abstract
The theoretical prediction that polarized photoelectrons can be ejected from unpolarized atoms by unpolarized radiation has been experimentally verified for xenon atoms. The wavelength dependence of the polarization has been measured and compared with theoretical results at helium and neon resonance wavelengths between 74.4 and 46.1 nm.Keywords
