An important type of the many-body effects in itinerant-electron magnets originates from the interaction of electrons with bosonic spin-flip excitations, both coherent (magnons) and incoherent (Stoner particle-hole excitations). While there has been a steady progress in understanding the properties of spin-flip excitations at a model level only little is known about microscopic details of their interactions with the electronic degrees of freedom in specific materials. Over the last few years we developed a first-principles method to account for the electron-magnon interaction in complex solids. While the method is based upon many body perturbation theory, we approximate the complex quantities from perturbation theory with quantities from time dependent density functional theory. This drastically reduces the numerical burden of the calculations and allows to consider complex materials like half-metallic ferromagnets. In this talk some of the main results and insights from this method will be presented.
