For rationalizing the Cooper pairing mechanism in a superconductor, it is central to identify bosons interacting with the conduction electrons. We determine the energy and momentum characteristics of such bosons in LiFeAs by exploiting the boson-assisted resonant amplification of Friedel oscillations by Fourier transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy (FT-STS). We show that the FT-STS signatures of the bosonic states survive in the normal state, and, moreover, that they are in perfect agreement with well-known strong above-gap anomalies in independently measured tunneling spectra at the very same energy. Thus, the small-momentum bosonic modes are promising candidates for providing the pairing interaction in LiFeAs.
