We present a theoretical many-body analysis of the electron-electron (e-e) inelastic damping rate $\Gamma$ of electron-like excitations in the Shockley surface state band of Ag(111). It takes into account ab-initio band structures for both bulk and surface states. $\Gamma$ is found to increase more rapidly as a function of surface state energy E than previously reported, thus leading to an improved agreement with experimental data.
