| dc.description | A relativistic two-body wave equation, local in configuration space, is derived from the Bethe-Salpeter equation for two scalar particles bound by a scalar Coulomb interaction. The two-body bound-state wave equation is solved analytically, giving a two-body Bohr-Sommerfeld formula whose energies agree with the Bethe-Salpeter equation to order alpha^4 for all quantum states. From the Bohr-Sommerfeld formula, along with the expectation values of two remaining small corrections, the energy levels of the scalar Coulomb Bethe-Salpeter equation are worked out to order alpha^6 for all states. | |
