A new method for solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation is developed. It allows to find the Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes both in Minkowski and in Euclidean spaces and, as a by product, the light-front wave function. The method is valid for any…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. The first purpose is to find a fully Poincare invariant solution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation for excited quarkonia, however, the second, in fact, major focus is on the relevance of the space-time…

The Bethe-Salpeter equation is a non-perturbative, relativistic and covariant description of two-body bound states. We derive the classical Bethe-Salpeter equation for two massive point particles (with or without spin) in a bound…
Using the solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation in Minkowski space for bound and scattering states found in previous works, we calculate the transition electromagnetic form factor describing the electro-disintegration of a bound system.
Bethe-Salpeter equation in the non-commutative space for a scalar-scalar bound state is considered. It is shown that in the non-relativistic limit, the effect of spatial non-commutativity appears as if there exist a magnetic dipole moment…
