Strong decays of strange quarkonia in a corrected 3P0 model

Abstract

Extensively applied to both light and heavy meson decay and standing as one of the most successful strong decay models is the ${}^3{P}_0$ model, in which $q\bar{q}$ 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 $\varphi (1020)$, $\varphi (1680)$, $\varphi (2050)$, ${\varphi }_1(1850)$, ${\varphi }_2(1850)$ and ${\varphi }_3(1850)$, in the bound-state corrected ${}^3{P}_0$ decay model (C${}^3{P}_0$). The C${}^3{P}_0$ model is obtained in the context of the Fock-Tani formalism, which is a mapping technique.
