Using high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission, we observe a strong spin-dependent renormalization and lifetime broadening of the quasiparticle excitations in the electronic band structure of Ni(111) in an energy window of $sim$0.3 eV below the Fermi level. We derive a quantitative result for the spin-dependent lifetime broadening by comparing the scattering rates of majority and minority $d$ states, and further show that spin-dependent electron correlations are instead negligible for $sp$ states. From our analysis we experimentally determine the effective on-site Coulomb interaction $U$ caused by Stoner-like interband transitions between majority and minority $d$ states. The present results unambiguously demonstrate the remarkable impact of spin-dependent electron correlation effects originating from single-particle excitations in a prototypical 3$d$ transition metal, paving the way for further refinement of current many-body theoretical approaches.
The polarization dependence of magnetic excitations in the quasi one-dimensional antiferromagnet BaCu2Si2O7 is studied as a function of momentum and energy transfer. The results of inelastic neutron scattering measurements are directly compared to se
Spin-flip excitations in a quantum Hall electron system at fixed filling factor nu=2 are modelled and studied under conditions of a strong Coulomb interaction when the `Landau level mixing is a dominant factor determining the excitation energy. The `
We investigate the low-lying excitation spectrum and ground-state properties of narrow graphene nanoribbons with zigzag edge configurations. Nanoribbons of comparable widths have been synthesized very recently [P. Ruffieux, emph{et al.} Nature textbf
We address the problem of Dirac fermions interacting with longitudinal phonons. A gap in the spectrum of fermions leads to the emergence of the Chern--Simons excitations in the spectrum of phonons. We study the effect of those excitations on observab
We investigate the role of short-ranged electron-electron interactions in a paradigmatic model of three dimensional topological insulators, using dynamical mean-field theory and focusing on non magnetically ordered solutions. The non-interacting band
