Resumen:
In this paper, we theoretically address the photoemission from image potential states (IPS)
around nanotubes. The relevance of this process is related to the fact that this particular kind of
IPS has been experimentally detected for carbon nanotubes by means of femtosecond-resolved
two-photon photoemission (Zamkov et al 2004 Phys. Rev. Lett. 93 156803). The quantum
interaction between the bound electron and the incident radiation field is considered within the
dipolar approximation, and the transition matrix for the process is obtained using a first-order
Born expansion. For a linearly polarized photon with the polarization vector perpendicular to
the nanotubes axis, electrons are found to be emitted with a polar angle that is determined by
the initial parallel momentum of the bound electron
