Related group theoretical studies, references inP. L. Huddleston,M. Lorente and P. Roman :Found. of Phys.,5, 75 (1975). The classical two-body problem was studied byC. Piron andF. Reuse (University of Genera, 1974).Y. S. Kim andM. B. Noz, and collaborators at Maryland have studied the relativistic two-body problem with harmonic oscillator potential in detail (references can be found inT. J. Karr: University of Maryland Technical Report No. 76-085 (January 1976), p. 76); for an earlier attempt (using unnormalizable wave functions) seeR. P. Feynman,M. Kislinger andF. Ravndal:Phys. Rev.
