Magnetism in reduced dimensions is one of the preconditions for the realization of nanoscale spintronics. Despite the recent discovery of ferromagnetism in monolayers of two-dimensional materials, tunability and engineering on such systems are challenging. Here we present the electronic structure of ultrathin ferromagnetic iron-palladium alloy films using spin-resolved momentum microscopy. Momentum microscopy enables the two-dimensional detection of photoelectrons with an in-plane crystal momentum over the full Brillouin zone. By employing an imaging spin filter, spin-resolved momentum maps of the iron-palladium alloy were acquired. Breaking of time reversal symmetry by the remanent magnetization of the film manifests in a pronounced anisotropy of the electron states in the Fermi surface. In particular, the competition between exchange interaction and strong spin-orbit coupling in the FePd alloy leads to the formation of wave-vector dependent local gaps in the Fermi surface. Moreover, the spin-resolved maps recorded by the momentum microscope give evidence for a non-collinear spin texture of the electron states at the Fermi surface, where the local spin polarization vector points orthogonal to the remanent magnetization of the sample.
