Electronic nematicity results in a surprisingly strong symmetry-breaking reconstruction of electronic states without a significant lattice distortion. An enigmatic example of a nematic state is found in Sr3Ru2O7, where a large resistivity anisotropy is stabilized by external magnetic field. The direction of the anisotropy can be controlled by the in-plane component of the magnetic field. Recently, STM measurements have revealed symmetry breaking of the electronic structure at the surface of Sr3Ru2O7 even in zero magnetic field. Here, we use low-temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy to study the electronic structure in Sr3Ru2O7 in vector magnetic fields. We find that the electronic structure is strongly affected even by relatively small external field when applied in the crystallographic a-b-plane, and is evolving continuously as a function of in-plane field direction. Our result establishes compass-like control over the electronic structure in the surface layer of Sr3Ru2O7. We can rationalise the continuous evolution of the electronic structure with field direction through the interplay of magnetism and spin-orbit coupling.
