APPLICATION OF NUCLEAR THEORY METHODS TO NEW FAMILY OF FERMI SYSTEM
Duo to a remarkable progress in experimental techniques, the new family of .small Fermi systems (SFS) (metal clusters, fullerencs, helium clusters and quantum dots) was discovered about ten years ago. As was established, those Fermi systems have a striking similarity with atomic nuclei (see re­views and conference proceedings [1-9]). The most remarkable feature of now SFS is that they possess a mean field of the same kind as in atomic iniclci which allows one to investigate SFS by nuclear theory methods. If recent investigations of SFS have mainly been limited to atoms and atomic nuclei, our present possibilities have become much wider, We have really obtained a good chance for studying both a common behavior of SFS and a wonderful variety of their properties. In the present paper, the particular properties of the new SFS as well as the application of nuclear physics methods to their description are briefly reviewed. The properties of the new SFS and atomic nuclei are continually compared. The main attention is paid to metal clusters (MC) or, more precisely, to E\ giant resonances (GR) in this system. Iri Sec.2, the sketch of basic properties of MC as well as the perspectives of their investigation arc given. Sec.3 is devoted to the description of E\ GR in MC, In Sec.3 the properties of fullerencs, helium clusters and quantum dots are outlined. In Sec.4 the conclusions are presented.

KAON ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIUS
We obtain a QCD sum rule for the kaon form factor at small Q2. It determines, with a rather good accuracy, the kaon charge radius which is in agreement with the experimental value. We also discuss a sum rule for the difference .

Introduction to the relativistic string theory
This book presents a systematic and detailed account of the classical and quantum theory of the relativistic string and some of its modifications. Main attention is paid to the first-quantized string theory with possible applications to the string models of hadrons as well as to the superstring approach to unifications of all the fundamental interactions in the elementary particle physics and to the “cosmic” strings. Some new aspects are provided such as the consideration of the string in an external electromagnetic field and in the space-time of constant curvature (the de Sitter universe), the relativistic string loaded by point-like masses and the Cartan method for describing the classical string dynamics. The relativistic membranes and p-branes are also considered briefly. The book is sufficiently self-contained and can be considered as an introduction to this new and fast developing branch of the elementary particle physics.

Some properties of constraints in theories with degenerate Lagrangians
The Poisson brackets of the primary constraints are expressed by means of linear differential operators in terms of Lagrangian constraints. In the framework of the Lagrangian formalism the authors propose a sufficient criterion for existence in the theory of second class constraints. It is shown that invariance of the action with respect to transformations with arbitrary functions of the time leads to primary constraints that are in involution with one another and with the canonical Hamiltonian, at least in the weak sense. It follows from the analysis of the functional arbitrariness in the solutions of the Hamilton equations that such primary constraints must be first-class constraints.

Surface modes and photonic modes in Casimir calculations for a compact cylinder
A rigorous formulation of the problem of calculating the electromagnetic vacuum energy of an infinite dielectric cylinder is discussed. It is shown that the physically relevant spectrum of electromagnetic excitations includes the surface modes and photonic modes. The mathematical procedure of summing over this spectrum is proposed, and the transition to imaginary frequencies is accomplished. As a result, the imaginary-frequency representation for the vacuum energy is justified which has been used in previous Casimir studies for this configuration.
