abstract = {We study the electron-magnon scattering in bulk Fe, Co, and
Ni within the framework of many-body perturbation theory
implemented in the full-potential linearized
augmented-plane-wave method. To this end, a k-dependent
self-energy (GT self-energy) describing the scattering of
electrons and magnons is constructed from the solution of a
Bethe-Salpeter equation for the two-particle (electron-hole)
Green function, in which single-particle Stoner and
collective spin-wave excitations (magnons) are treated on
the same footing. Partial self-consistency is achieved by
the alignment of the chemical potentials. The resulting
renormalized electronic band structures exhibit strong
spin-dependent lifetime effects close to the Fermi energy,
which are strongest in Fe. The renormalization can give rise
to a loss of quasiparticle character close to the Fermi
energy, which we attribute to electron scattering with
spatially extended spin waves. This scattering is also
responsible for dispersion anomalies in conduction bands of
iron and for the formation of satellite bands in nickel.
Furthermore, we find a band anomaly at a binding energy of
1.5 eV in iron, which results from a coupling of the
quasihole with single-particle excitations that form a peak
in the Stoner continuum. This band anomaly was recently
observed in photoemission experiments. On the theory side,
we show that the contribution of the Goldstone mode to the
GT self-energy is expected to (nearly) vanish in the
long-wavelength limit. We also present an in-depth
discussion about the possible violation of causality when an
incomplete subset of self-energy diagrams is chosen},
