Super slow rotators as a test of stellar magnetic field formation mechanisms
As a result of long-term observations at the 6-m BTA telescope, it was proved that super slow magnetic rotators (stars with rotation periods of more than several years and strong magnetic fields) are not an exception, as was previously believed, but a natural phenomenon among magnetic Ap stars. The presence of such objects proves that a magnetic field in Ap stars of the Main Sequence can exist for a long time without any generation by the dynamo mechanism. Thus, this mechanism is not a necessary condition for the existence of a magnetic field. The result is important for the theory of the formation of stellar magnetic fields, as it clearly shows that to explain their existence in the stars of the upper part of the Main Sequence, the hypothesis of the fossil origin of a field (from the magnetic field of the protostellar nebula or generation in the early stages of evolution) is enough.

Detection of linear increase of radio emission from the microquasar Cygnus X-3 during the giant flare in June 2019
During the studies of the flare of the microquasar Cygnus X-3, when for a while it became the brightest stellar radio source in the Milky Way, in a series of measurements on the multi-azimuth antenna system of the RATAN-600 radio telescope to track the object for five hours, we established for the first time in the world that at the very beginning of the event (June 18, 2019), the brightness of the radio source grew linearly and faster with time at higher frequencies. This may be a decisive moment for determining the mechanism of generation of relativistic electrons in jet emissions of the microquasar.
