Suppression of cooling by strong magnetic fields in white dwarf stars
We explain the phenomenon of extremely strong magnetic fields being more
common in cool (old) white dwarfs than in young ones. As a result of
observations of WD1953-011, detailed maps of the surface magnetic-field
distribution and brightness/temperature were obtained for the first time.
We conclude that strong magnetic fields suppress almost completely the
convective transfer of energy from the interiors of these stars to the
surface, significantly slowing down their evolutionary
cooling. This suppression is what creates the observed excess of strongly
magnetic cool (old) white dwarfs relative to the young stars of this type.

Discovery and investigation of the spectral variability of the
high-latitude IR-source IRAS01005+7910
The monitoring of the optical component of the IR source IRAS01005+7910 was
carried out during 2000-2013 with the BTA (with a spectral resolution of
R=60000).
Its spectral variability was discovered for the first time in the BTA
spectra. We determined the fundamental parameters (luminosity
log L/Lsun=3.6 and effective temperature
Teff=21500K) of the central star and the detailed chemical
composition of its atmosphere. The presence of forbidden emissions [NII]
and [SII] in the spectrum indicates the onset of the ionization of the
circumstellar envelope and the
nearing planetary nebula stage. We used the positions of stable forbidden
emissions to determine for the first time the systemic velocity of the
source Vsys=-50.5km/s. The complex pattern of the velocity-field
variations is caused by a combination of atmospheric pulsations, variations
of the wind geometry and kinematics, and also the
possible binarity of the star.

Evidence of supercritical accretion in SS433
We have investigated the rapid stochastic variability of SS433 in the X-ray
(RXTE) and optical (BTA) ranges and found new evidence for the supercritical
regime of accretion onto the black hole in this binary system. We discovered
a flat portion (white noise) in the power spectrum of SS433 due to an abrupt
increase of the disk thickness in the supercritical region. We prove that
at the distances from the black hole greater than the disk spherization
radius, the disk is standard, whereas the disk is
supercritical at distances smaller than the spherization radius. Both the
hard X-ray radiation and the visual light are seen reflected from the walls
of the funnel that forms in the wind of the supercritical disk of SS433.
The soft X-ray radiation forms in the jets of SS433 and exhibits a 50-second
lag, as the jets move with a velocity four times smaller than that of light.

Discovery and study of the new polar USNO-A2.0 0825-18396733
Based on the results of observations with the SAO RAS telescopes BTA and
Zeiss-1000, we have studied the faint variable star USNO-A2.0 0825-18396733.
The system's components orbit the center of mass with a period of
P = 0.d08481(2). Their
masses are determined as 0.71-0.78M☼ (white dwarf) and
0.18-0.20M☼ (red dwarf). The light of the system was
found to be very strongly polarized (the circular
polarization reaches 30%). We concluded that a new polar was discovered, i.e.,
USNO-A2.0 0825-18396733 is an interacting close binary system containing a
strongly magnetized white dwarf, the field strength of which exceeds that
of the Earth by a factor of tens of millions.
