We propose an entirely nonempirical and computationally efficient scheme to calculate highly reliable vibrationally resolved photoelectron spectra for molecules from first principles. To this end, we combine nonempirically tuned long-range corrected hybrid functionals with non-self-consistent many-body perturbation theory in the G0W0 approximation and a Franck-Condon multimode analysis based on DFT-calculated frequencies. The vibrational analysis allows for a direct comparison of the GW-calculated spectra to gas-phase ultraviolet photoelectron measurements of neutral and anionic molecules, respectively. Direct comparison of the calculated peak maxima with experiment yields mean absolute errors below 0.1 eV for ionization potentials, electron affinities, and fundamental gaps, clearly outperforming commonly used G0W0 approaches at similar numerical costs.
