A new cons
truction of a CEMS detector is presented. The detector is dedicated to resonant polarime
tric studies of samples in an external magnetic field. The cons
truction permits investigations at different angles of radiation with respect to the sample surface. A possibility of magnetic texture measurements using circularly polarized radiation is demons
trated. An average square of the cosine

were determined and compared with results of independent measurements of the magnetic field inhomogeneity by a Hall probe. CEMS measurements performed on an isotopically enriched sample show a substantial influence of thickness effects on the measured spec
tra. An appropriate correction for a saturation effect was proposed and tested.
