gaga and g g decay rates for equal mass heavy quarkonia

We present a calculation of the two-photon and two-gluon widths for the equal mass quarkonium states $^1S_0$, $^3P_0$ and $^3P_2$ of the charmonium and upsilon systems. The approach taken is based on using the full relativistic $q\bar{q}\to\ga\ga$ amplitude together with a wave function derived from the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter equation. Momentum space radial wave functions obtained from an earlier fit of the charmonium and upsilon spectra are used to evaluate the necessary integrals.
