Extensively applied to both light and heavy meson decay and standing as one of the most successful strong decay models is the 3 P0 model, in which qq pair production is the dominant mechanism. The pair production can be obtained from the non-relativistic limit of a microscopic interaction Hamiltonian involving Dirac quark fields. The evaluation of the decay amplitude can be performed by a diagrammatic technique for drawing quark lines. In this paper we use an alternative approach which consists in a mapping technique, the Fock-Tani formalism, in order to obtain an effective Hamiltonian starting from same microscopic interaction. An additional effect is manifest in this formalism associated to the extended nature of mesons: bound-state corrections. A corrected 3 P0 is obtained and applied, as an example, to b1 → ωπ and a1 → ρπ decays.

The successful mapping technique (Fock–Tani formalism) has produced a corrected 3P0 model ( C 3P0 model), which retains the basic aspects of the 3P0 predictions with the inclusion of bound-state corrections. In this work we have evaluated the decay amplitude of a strange quarkonia candidate, namely ϕ(1020). A comparison is made with the non-corrected model.

Having its origin in a successful mapping technique, the Fock-Tani formalism, the corrected 3 P 0 model (C 3 P 0 ) retains the basic aspects of the 3 P 0 predictions with the inclusion of bound-state corrections. Evaluation of the decay amplitudes has been performed for open-flavor strong decays in the light meson sector. The bound-state corrections introduce a fine-tuning for the former 3 P 0 model, in particular, the adjustment of the D/S ratios in b 1 → ωπ, a 1 → ρπ and h 1 → ρπ decays.

Extensively applied to both light and heavy meson decay and standing as one of the most successful strong decay models is the 3 P0 model, in which qq pair production is the dominant mechanism. In this paper we evaluate strong decay amplitudes and partial widths of strange S and D state mesons, namely φ(1020), φ(1680), φ(2050), φ1(1850), φ2(1850) and φ3(1850), in the bound-state corrected 3 P0 decay model (C 3 P0). The C 3 P0 model is obtained in the context of the Fock-Tani formalism, which is a mapping technique.
