| contents | In this paper, we presented an approximate analytical treatment of the Coulomb plus logarithmic potential using perturbation theory to investigate the mass spectra of bottomonium and charmonium mesons for the low-order quantum states. The derived energy equation, to first-order corrections, was employed to model the free potential parameters through fitting to experimental data of the Particle Data Group. The proposed potential successfully reproduces asymptotic freedom at short distances through one-gluon exchange interactions and quark confinement at large distances, which are the essential features of the strong interactions in Quantum chromodynamics theory. The calculated bottomonium masses exhibited excellent agreement with experimental values, yielding an absolute percentage average deviation (APAD) of 0.24%, which improves upon several previously reported theoretical results. Similarly, the vector and pseudoscalar charmonium masses were obtained with an APAD of 1.65%, demonstrating improved and comparable accuracy relative to existing competing theoretical calculations. Although our results were limited to first-order corrections to the energy spectra within the perturbation theory, the reliability of the approximation was validated by comparison with exact numerical solutions obtained using the matrix Numerov method. The small percentage errors obtained confirm the effectiveness of the phenomenological potential and perturbation approximation in describing quarkonia systems. The results suggest that the approach can be reliably extended to higher excited states. |
