EXACT SOLUTIONS OF THE BETHE-SAL-PETER EQUATION FOR FERMIONS

The properties of the Bethe-Salpeter equation (B. S.) for two fermions with equal masses mediated by a massless vector particle gamma /sub 5/ gamma / sub mu / model are investigated in the ladder approximation. For vanishing total energy of the bound state, sets of eigensolutions of the homogeneous B. S. equation are obtained. Arguments are given that one of these belonging to discrete eigenvalues of the coupling constant can be called a bound state, whereas the other continuous sets lack in some properties, attributed to bound states of the usual sense.
