A solution to the Schrodinger equation for the nonrelativistic Green functi
on which is used for describing the heavy quark-antiquark pair production n
ear the threshold in e(+)e(-) annihilation is presented. A quick comparison
with existing results is given. A choice of the effective mass scale for t
he nonrelativistic system with Coulomb interaction is discussed. (C) 2000 E
