Primary postulates of the standard model as consequences of the composite nature of the fundamental fermions
SummaryA field model of two-component fermions is described, the consequences of which coincide in the main with primary postulates of the standard model. Such a model can be constructed for 4 generations at the minium. Peculiarities of the relative coordinate space, determining in general an internal symmetry group, are considered. Analogues of the Higgs fields appear in the model naturally after transition to the Grassmannian extra coordinates.

A quantum gravitational model of redshifts
The main features of an alternative model of redshifts are described here. The model is based on conjectures about an existence of the graviton background with the Planckian spectrum and a super-strong character of quantum gravitational interaction. This model is connected with the assumed quantum mechanism of gravity. A behavior of two theoretical functions of a redshift $z$ in this model - the geometrical distance $r(z)$ and the luminosity distance $D_{L}(z)$ - and an existence of two different cosmological horizons for any observer are discussed.

A Fine quantum mechanism of classical gravity
It is shown that screening the background of super-strong interacting gravitons ensures the Newtonian attraction, if a part of single gravitons is pairing and graviton pairs are destructed by collisions with a body. If the considered quantum mechanism of classical gravity is realized in the nature, than an existence of black holes contradicts to the equivalence principle. In such the model, Newton's constant is proportional to $H^{2}/T^{4},$ where $H$ is the Hubble constant, $T$ is an equivalent temperature of the graviton background. The estimate of the Hubble constant is obtained for the Newtonian limit: $H=3.026 \cdot 10^{-18} s^{-1}$ (or $94.576 km \cdot s^{-1} \cdot Mpc^{-1}$).

Model of graviton-dusty universe
Primary features of a new cosmological model, which is based on conjectures about an existence of the graviton background and superstrong gravitational quantum interaction, are considered. An expansion of the universe is impossible in such the model because of deceleration of massive objects by the graviton background, which is similar to the one for the NASA deep space probes Pioneer 10, 11. Redshifts of remote objects are caused in the model by interaction of photons with the graviton background, and the Hubble constant depends on an intensity of interaction and an equivalent temperature of the graviton background. Virtual massive gravitons would be dark matter particles. They transfer energy, lost by luminous matter radiation, which in a final stage may be collected with black holes and other massive objects.

May gravitons be super-strong interacting particles?
A scheme, in which gravitons are super-strong interacting, is described. The graviton background with the Planckian spectrum and a small effective temperature is considered as a reservoir of gravitons. A cross-section of interaction of a graviton with any particle is assumed to be a bilinear function of its energies. Any pair of bodies are attracting not due to an exchange with its own gravitons, but due to a pressure of external gravitons of this background. A graviton pairing is necessary to obtain classical gravity. Any divergencies are not possible in such the model because of natural smooth cut-offs of the graviton spectrum from both sides. Some cosmological consequences of this scheme are discussed, too. Also it is shown here that the main conjecture of this approach may be verified at present on the Earth.

The semileptonic form factors of B and D mesons in the Quark Confinement Model
Abstract: The form factors of the weak currents, which appear in the semileptonic decays of the heavy pseudoscalar mesons are calculated within the quark confinement model by taking into account, for the first time, the structure of heavy-meson vertex and the finite quark mass contribution in the heavy-quark propagators. The results are in quite good agreement with the experimental data.

LEPTONIC AND SEMILEPTONIC DECAYS OF PSEUDOSCALAR MESONS
Abstract We employ the relativistic constituent quark model to give a unified description of the leptonic and semileptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons ( π , K , D , D s , B , B s ). The calculated leptonic decay constants and form factors are found to be in good agreement with available experimental data and other approaches. We reproduce the results of spin-flavor symmetry in the heavy quark limit.

Semileptonic decays of double heavy baryons in a relativistic constituent three-quark model
We study the semileptonic decays of double-heavy baryons using a manifestly Lorentz covariant constituent three-quark model. We present complete results on transition form factors between double-heavy baryons for finite values of the heavy quark/baryon masses and in the heavy quark symmetry limit, which is valid at and close to zero recoil. Decay rates are calculated and compared to each other in the full theory, keeping masses finite, and also in the heavy quark limit.

Revisiting gamma gamma --> pi+ pi- at low energies
We complete the recalculation of the available two-loop expressions for the reaction \gamma\gamma->\pi\pi in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Here, we present the results for charged pions. The cross section and the values of the dipole polarizabilities agree very well with the earlier calculation, provided the same set of low-energy constants (LECs) is used. With updated values for the LECs at order p^4, we find for the dipole polarizabilities (\alpha_1-\beta_1)_{\pi^\pm} = (5.7\pm 1.0) 10^{-4} fm^3, which is in conflict with the experimental result recently reported by the MAMI Collaboration.

Integrating out strange quarks in ChPT
We study three flavour chiral perturbation theory in a limit where the strange quark mass is much larger than the external momenta and the up and down quark masses, and where the external fields are those of two–flavour chiral perturbation theory. In this case, the theory reduces to the one of SU(2)L × SU(2)R. Through this reduction, one can work out the strange quark mass dependence of the LECs in the two–flavour case. We present the pertinent relations at two–loop order for F,B and li.
