Semileptonic decays of B c mesons into charmonium states in a relativistic quark model
We use the framework of a relativistic constituent quark model to study the semileptonic transitions of the Bc meson into (c̄c) charmonium states where (c̄c) = ηc ( S0), J/ψ ( S1), χc0 ( P0), χc1 ( P1), hc ( P1), χc2 ( P2), ψ ( D2). We compute the q –dependence of all relevant form factors and give predictions for their semileptonic Bc decay modes including also their τ -modes. We derive a formula for the polar angle distribution of the charged lepton in the (lνl) c.m. frame and compute the partial helicity rates that multiply the angular factors in the decay distribution. For the discovery channel Bc → J/ψ(→ μ μ)lν we compute the transverse/longitudinal composition of the J/ψ which can be determined by an angular analysis of the decay J/ψ → μμ. We compare our results with the results of other calculations.

Multiquark states in the covariant quark confinement model
This talk reviews the last applications of the covariant quark model for studying the properties of the multiquark states: B_s-meson (quark-antiquark state), light baryons (three-quark states) and tetraquark (four-quark state). The form factors of the B(B_s)-> P(V)-transitions are evaluated in the full kinematical region of momentum transfer squared. The widths of some B_s-nonleptonic decays are calculated. The static properties of the proton and neutron, and the \Lambda-hyperon (magnetic moments and charge radii) and the behavior of the nucleon form factors at low momentum transfers are described. The consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state are explored. The decay widths of the observed channels X->J/\psi+2\pi (3\pi) and X-> \bar D^0 + D^0+\pi^0 via the intermediate off--shell states X-> J/\psi+\rho(\omega) and X-> \bar D + D^* are calculated. Its one-photon decay X-> \gamma+ J/\psi is also analyzed.

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.

The Box anomaly and radiative decays of eta(eta-prime) mesons
We report on a confined quark model calculation of the transition form factors for the radiative decays of \eta(\eta')->\gamma l^+l^- and \eta(\eta')->\gamma\pi^+\pi^-. The \eta-\eta' mixing angle \theta_P is determined from the set of data on the electromagnetic \eta(\eta') decays. It is found that \theta_P\sim -16.5. The analysis of the dipionic mass distribution in the decay \eta'->\gamma\pi^+\pi^- confirms the existence of a non-resonant contribution which is the box anomaly.

The graviton background: a new way to quantum gravity
Graviton pairing and destruction of these pairs under collisions with bodies may lead to the Newtonian attraction. It opens us a new way to a very-low-energy quantum gravity model. In the model by the author, cosmological redshifts are caused by interactions of photons with gravitons of the background. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons lead to an additional relaxation of any photonic flux. Total galaxy number counts/redshift and galaxy number counts/magnitude relations are computed and found to be in a good agreement with galaxy observations.

Superspace without torsion and the composite fundamental fermions
(N=2)-superspace without torsion is described, which is equivalent to an 8-space with a discrete internal subspace. A number and a character of ties determine now an internal symmetry group, while in the supersymmetrical models this one is determined by an extension degree N. Such a model can be constructed for no less than 4 generations of the two-component fundamental fermions. Analogues of the Higgs fields appear in the model naturally after transition to the Grassmannian extra coordinates. The connection between discrete and continues internal symmetries of the model is discussed. If one considers gravity as embedding the curved 4-space into a 12-dimensional flat space, a U(1)-symmetry appears transformations of which should be connected with the ones of SU(2)-group. If super-strong interacting gravitons are constituents of the composite fermions, all this may open us another way to unify the known interactions. The main feature of this new approach may be the external see of gravitons underlying an internal structure of particles; the lack of any divergencies would be due the Planckian spectrum of external gravitons.

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.

A few remarks about the Pioneer anomaly
Some features of the Pioneer anomaly are discussed in context of author’s explanation of this effect as a deceleration of the probes in the graviton background. It is noted that if the model is true then the best parameter of the anomalous acceleration should be not the distance to the Sun but a cosine of the angle between a velocity of the probe and its radius-vector.

Galaxy number counts in a presence of the graviton background
In the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, cosmological redshifts are caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to an additional relaxation of any photonic flux. Using only the luminosity distance and a geometrical one as functions of a redshift in this model, theoretical predictions for galaxy number counts are considered here. The Schechter luminosity function with $\alpha =-2.43$ is used. The considered model provides a good fit to galaxy observations by Yasuda et al. (AJ, 122 (2001) 1104) if the same K-corrections are added. It is shown that observations of $N(z)$ for different magnitudes $m$ are a lot more informative than the ones of $N(m).$
