Abstract:

General, bound-state solutions are obtained to the Bethe-Salpeter equation describing a spin-0 boson and a spin-1/2 fermion with arbitrary masses that interact via scalar electrodynamics. When the energy is non-vanishing, the equation is solved in the ladder approximation using a systematic, numerical method that yields solutions to many, if not all such, two-body, bound-state Bethe-Salpeter equations.
