Description

I show that if 0, (r-1dVsub(conf.)(r)/dr)sub(p)>0 then within the Fermi-Breit approach the 11p1 masses of the canti b systems are bounded by 3558.4 < M(11p1sup(canti c) 3605 MeV, 9901.2 < M(11p1sup(banti b) < 9917 MeV in case the spin forces are generated by electric confinement. On the other hand, if the confining potential generates spin forces by a scalar gluon exchange then I show that M(11p1sup(canti c) < 3558.4 MeV, M(11p1sup(banti b) < 9901.2 meV so that the measurement of the 11p1sup(canti c) and/or 11p1sup(banti b) masses could decide between these two alternatives.
