Abstract

Operating just once with the naive Foldy-Wouthuysen-Tani transformation on the relativistic Fermi-Yang equation for Q q bound states described by the semi-relativistic Hamiltonian which includes Coulomb-like as well as confining scalar potentials, we have calculated heavy meson mass spectra of D and B together with higher spin states. Based on the formulation recently proposed, their masses and wave functions are expanded up to the second order in 1/mQ with a heavy quark mass mQ and the lowest order equation is examined carefully to obtain a complete set of eigenfunctions for the Schrödinger equation. Heavy quark effective theory parameters, Λ, λ1, and λ2, are also determined at the first and second order in 1/mQ.
