Description

In this paper we derive the Bethe-Salpeter equation for a bound state consisting of a spin-0 particle and a spin-(3/2 particle in the general case. For the electromagnetic bound state, in the ladder approximation, a Wick-Cutkosky-type equation and its solution for an S-wave state are obtained. Using this relativistic Bethe-Salpeter amplitude, we calculate the probabilities of production, the disintegration, and decay rate of the (π+Ω-) atom
