Abstract

The spectrum and relativistic wave functions of BcB_c system are investigated via solving the complete Salpeter equation. Emphases are put on the study of the partial waves of each JPJ^P state. Our study shows that there are three categories of JPJ^P states. The first category contains 00^- and 0+0^+ states, which are 1S0{}^1S_0 dominant state with a small amount of PP wave and 3P0{}^3P_0 dominant state with a small amount of SS wave, respectively. The second category includes the natural parity states, such as 11^-, 2+2^+, 33^-, etc. Taking the 11^- state as an example, we study it in two cases. One is the 3S1{}^3S_1 dominant state with a small amount of PP and DD waves, and the other is the 3D1{}^3D_1 dominant state but contains a large amount of SS and PP wave components. The third category includes the unnatural parity states, such as 1+1^+, 22^-, 3+3^+, etc. For the 1+1^+ spectrum, the states are grouped into pairs with different radial quantum numbers. Each pair contains two 1P13P1{}^1P_1-{}^3P_1 mixing states, and the corresponding mixing angles are calculated by using the relativistic wave functions.
