Attempts at modeling strong decays date from 1969,
 
when Micu suggested
 
that hadron decay proceeds through $q\bar q$ pair production with vacuum
 
quantum numbers, <math>J^{PC} = 0^{++}</math>. Since this corresponds to a <sup>3</sup>P<sub>0</sub>
 
<math>q\bar q</math> state, it is now generally referred to as the 3p0
 
decay model. This suggestion was developed and applied extensively by
 
Le Yaouanc <i>et al.</i>  in the 1970s.
 
Studies of hadron decays using the 3p0 model
 
have been
 
concerned almost exclusively with numerical predictions, and have not led to
 
any fundamental modifications to the original model.
 
Recent studies have considered changes in the spatial
 
dependence of the pair production amplitude as a function of
 
quark coordinates
 
but the fundamental decay mechanism is usually not
 
addressed; this is widely believed to be a nonperturbative process,
 
involving ``flux tube breaking".
 
There have been some studies of the decay
 
mechanism which consider an alternative phenomenological
 
model in which the <math>q\bar q</math> pair is produced with <sup>3</sup>S<sub>1</sub>
 
quantum numbers; this possibility however appears to
 
disagree with experiment.
