摘要
We study the particle-antiparticle force in a model scalar quantum field theory (QFT) with a nonlinear Higgs-like mediating field. We use the variational method in a reformulated Hamiltonian formalism of the theory. The trial state consists of a superposition of single-pair and two-pair Fock states. Coupled relativistic integral equations for the one-and two-pair channel functions are derived and their nonrelativistic limit forms are obtained. Variational ansatz are used to derive the correction to the dominant Yukawa interparticle potential for the particle-antiparticle system. The correction is found to be an attractive short-range potential.
