As their energy reaches down to only a few meV, they are present at all temperatures and substantially influence the properties of magnetic systems. To study the spin excitations in solids from first principles, we have developed a computational scheme based on many-body perturbation theory within the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave (FLAPW) method. The main quantity of interest is the dynamical transverse spin susceptibility or magnetic response function, from which magnetic excitations, including single-particle spin-flip Stoner excitations and collective spin-wave modes as well as their lifetimes, can be obtained. In order to describe spin waves we include appropriate vertex corrections in the form of a multiple-scattering T matrix, which describes the coupling of electrons and holes with different spins. The electron–hole interaction incorporates the screening of the many-body system within the random-phase approximation. To reduce the numerical cost in evaluating the four-point T matrix, we exploit a transformation to maximally localized Wannier functions that takes advantage of the short spatial range of electronic correlation in the partially filled d or f orbitals of magnetic materials. The theory and the implementation are discussed in detail. In particular, we show how the magnetic response function can be evaluated for arbitrary k points. This enables the calculation of smooth dispersion curves, allowing one to study fine details in the k dependence of the spin-wave spectra. We also demonstrate how spatial and time-reversal symmetry can be exploited to accelerate substantially the computation of the four-point quantities. As an illustration, we present spin-wave spectra and dispersions for the elementary ferromagnet bcc Fe, B2-type tetragonal FeCo, and CrO2 calculated with our scheme. The results are in good agreement with available experimental data."}],"publication":"First Principles Approaches to Spectroscopic Properties of Complex Materials","title":"Spin excitations in solids from many-body perturbation theory","date_created":"2020-08-27T21:00:45Z","publisher":"Springer","year":"2014","quality_controlled":"1","file_date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:48:45Z","isi":"1","department":[{"_id":"296"},{"_id":"35"},{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"230"}],"user_id":"16199","series_title":" Topics in Current Chemistry","_id":"18471","status":"public","editor":[{"first_name":"Cristiana","last_name":"Di Valentin","full_name":"Di Valentin, Cristiana"},{"first_name":"Silvana","full_name":"Botti, Silvana","last_name":"Botti"},{"last_name":"Cococcioni","full_name":"Cococcioni, Matteo","first_name":"Matteo"}],"type":"book_chapter","doi":"10.1007/128_2013_518","volume":347,"author":[{"last_name":"Friedrich","full_name":"Friedrich, Christoph","first_name":"Christoph"},{"last_name":"Şaşıoğlu","full_name":"Şaşıoğlu, Ersoy","first_name":"Ersoy"},{"first_name":"Mathias","full_name":"Müller, Mathias","last_name":"Müller"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","last_name":"Schindlmayr","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno","id":"458","first_name":"Arno"},{"full_name":"Blügel, Stefan","last_name":"Blügel","first_name":"Stefan"}],"date_updated":"2025-12-16T08:06:12Z","intvolume":"       347","page":"259-301","citation":{"chicago":"Friedrich, Christoph, Ersoy Şaşıoğlu, Mathias Müller, Arno Schindlmayr, and Stefan Blügel. “Spin Excitations in Solids from Many-Body Perturbation Theory.” In <i>First Principles Approaches to Spectroscopic Properties of Complex Materials</i>, edited by Cristiana Di Valentin, Silvana Botti, and Matteo Cococcioni, 347:259–301.
