Abstract

In this paper, the general structure of leptonic decay constants of vector mesons is evaluated in the framework of the Bethe–Salpeter equation under the Covariant Instantaneous Ansatz (CIA), which is a Lorentz-invariant generalization of Instantaneous Approximation (IA). The numerical values of fV in this CIA framework are on the low side in comparison to recent calculations of these quantities. However, the overall asymptotic behavior of fV is in conformity with QCD predictions.
