Angle-resolved inverse-photoemission spectra from Ag(100) have been measured. The results are compared with the predictions of bulk band-structure theory and a free-electron model. The latter gives good agreement for the structure with a final state near the Fermi energy. Band theory is needed for the structure 17 eV above the Fermi energy. This structure is very nondispersive, indicating the existence of a very flat band throughout the {Gamma}{ital XUL} plane.
