abstract = {Spin excitations in atomic-scale nanostructures have been
investigated with inelastic scanning tunneling spectroscopy,
sometimes with conflicting results. In this work, we present
a theoretical viewpoint on a recent experimental controversy
regarding the spin excitations of Co adatoms on Pt(111).
While one group [Balashov et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 102,
257203 (2009)] claims to have detected them, another group
reported their observation only after the hydrogenation of
the Co adatom [Dubout et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 106807
(2015)]. Utilizing time-dependent density functional theory
in combination with many-body perturbation theory, we
demonstrate that, although inelastic spin excitations are
possible for Cr, Mn, Fe, and Co adatoms, their efficiency
differs. While the excitation signature is less pronounced
for Mn and Co adatoms, it is larger for Cr and Fe adatoms.
We find that the tunneling matrix elements or the tunneling
cross-section related to the nature and symmetry of the
relevant electronic states are more favorable for triggering
the spin excitations in Fe than in Co. An enhancement of the
tunneling and of the inelastic spectra is possible by
attaching hydrogen to the adatom at the appropriate
position.},
