	abstract = {Co islands and films are characterized by x-ray magnetic circular dichroism photoemission electron microscopy. The spatial resolution capabilities of the technique together with atomic growth control permit obtaining perfectly flat triangular islands with a given thickness (3 ML), very close to an abrupt spin-reorientation transition. The magnetic domain configurations are found to depend on island size: while small islands can be magnetized in a single-domain state, larger islands show more complex patterns. Furthermore, the magnetization pattern of the larger islands presents a common chirality. By means of dichroic spectromicroscopy at the Co L absorption edges, an experimental estimate of the ratio of the spin and orbital magnetic moment for three monolayer thick films is obtained.},
