The role of scalar and mass interactions in a relativistic model of the charmonium spectrum

Abstract

Lorentz scalar and mass interactions are studied in more detail in the framework of a reduced Dirac equation for heavy quark-antiquark mesons. A microscopic model for these interactions is proposed and analyzed. The charmonium mass spectrum is reproduced by means of two free parameters; a third parameter is fixed by means of a phenomenological hypothesis in accordance with the model.
