Heavy mesons in a relativistic model

OSTI ID:756885
Motivated by the present interest in the heavy quark effective theory, the authors use the spectator equations to treat the mesonic bound states of heavy quarks. The kernel they use is based on scalar confining and vector Coulomb potentials. Wave functions are treated to leading order and energies to order 1/m{sub Q} in the heavy-light systems, and order 1/m{sub Q{sup 2}} in heavy-heavy systems. Their results are in reasonable agreement with experimental measurements. They estimate two of the parameters of the heavy quark effective theory, and propose further calculations that may be undertaken in the future.
