Abstract
In this note we address the problem of solving for the positronium mass spectrum. We use front-form dynamics together with the method of flow equations. For a special choice of the similarity function, the calculations can be simplified by analytically integrating over the azimuthal angle. One obtains an effective Hamiltonian and we solve numerically for its spectrum. Comparing our results with different approaches we find encouraging properties concerning the cutoff dependence of the results.
