contents We present the screened multichannel Dyson equation for the simulation of both direct and inverse photoemission spectra from first principles. The screened multichannel Dyson equation improves upon the standard multichannel Dyson equation by correctly including the screening of all particle-particle and electron-hole interactions due to the presence of the other electrons. Using the example of bulk silicon, we demonstrate that the screened multichannel Dyson equation can capture the main features of the direct and inverse photoemission spectra. In particular, it captures the correct position of the silicon plasmon satellite, unlike standard many-body approaches such as $GW$, which strongly overestimates the binding energy of this satellite. Finally, we show that also the standard multichannel Dyson equation and the second-Born approximation strongly overestimate the binding energy of the plasmon satellite, thus demonstrating the importance of properly screening all particle-particle and electron-hole interactions.
