Description

In the confining background field method (CBFM) the non-perturbative quark-antiquark interaction is expressed via the bilocal vacuum correlators D(x2+τ2) and D1(x2+τ2). The proper-time path-integral method of Schwinger and Feynman is used to derive systematically the nonrelativistic expansion of qanti q interaction including spin-dependent terms. The latter are very sensitive to D and D1. The potentials obtained reproduce main phenomenological features: Confinement, scalar-exchange-type spin-orbit and short-range spin-spin interaction.
