We investigate a heavy-light quarkonium and derive its bound-state equation in the form of a Schroedingerlike equation and, after the exact inverse Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation, in the form of a Diraclike quation. We discuss the Lorentz nature of confinement for such a system and demonstrate explicitly the effective chiral symmetry restoration for highly excited states in the mesonic spectrum. We give an estimate for the scale of this restoration.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-07-29T13:35:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.38.Aw", "12.39.Pn", "12.39.Ki" ], "keywords": [ "heavy-light mesons", "parity doubling", "confinement", "exact inverse foldy-wouthuysen transformation", "generalised nambu-jona-lasinio quark models" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
