The spectra of the D, F, B and E mesons have been calculated using the MIT bag model together with a static potential related to the Fourier transform of the "dressed" gluon propagator. The heavy quark has been assumed to coincide with the centre of the bag, while the Light antiquark was treated relativistically using the Dirac equation. The spectra obtained are compared with experimental data as well as with the results of other models of these Qq mesons. The ratio mb/mc obtained in the fit to experimentally known states is compared with the result expected from the hyperfine splitting of the D and B mesons. It appears that tris ratio is model dependent. More experimental data are required to further evaluate the validity of this model. 2015-10-30T10:50:31Z 2015-10-30T10:50:31Z 1985 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/14576 eng application/pdf Department of Physics Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
