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 $3^P_0$ is obtained and applied, as an example, to $b_{1}\toωπ$ and $a_{1}\toρπ$ decays.3 figures. To appear in Physical Review DHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyNuclear Theorytext
