Recently we used Dirac's constraint mechanics and supersymmetries to derive two coupled compatible 16-component Dirac equations that govern two relativistic spinning particles interacting through world scalar and vector potentials. They reduce exactly to four decoupled four-component local Schroedinger-like equations with energy-dependent quasipotentials Phi/sub w/. Their nonperturbative covariant structure (leading to perturbative and O(1/c/sup 2/) expansions that agree with field-theoretic approaches) suit these equations ideally for phenomenological applications in which the potentials have some links with relativistic field theories. (These equations are exactly solvable for singlet positronium producing a spectrum correct through order ..cap alpha../sup 4/.) Here we use our equations to extend the validity of various one- or two-parameter models for the heavy-quark static potential to the relativistic light-quark regime. These models include the leading-log model (for all length scales) of Adler and Piran and Richardson's potential modified by flavor-dependent vacuum corrections.
