The types of instability in the interacting binary stars are reviewed. The project Inter-Longitude Astronomy is a series of smaller projects on concrete stars or groups of stars. It has no special funds, and is supported from resources and grants of participating organizations, when informal working groups are created. Totally we studied 1900+ variable stars of different types. The characteristic timescale is from seconds to decades and (extrapolating) even more. The monitoring of the first star of our sample AM Her was initiated by Prof. V.P. Tsesevich (1907-1983). Since more than 358 ADS papers were published. Some highlights of our photometric and photo-polarimetric monitoring and mathematical modelling of interacting binary stars of different types are presented: classical, asynchronous, intermediate polars and magnetic dwarf novae (DO Dra) with 25 timescales corresponding to different physical mechanisms and their combinations (part Polar); negative and positive superhumpers in nova-like and many dwarf novae stars (Superhumper); eclipsing non-magnetic cataclysmic variables; symbiotic systems (Symbiosis); super-soft sources (SSS, QR And); spotted (and not spotted) eclipsing variables with (and without) evidence for a current mass transfer (Eclipser) with a special emphasis on systems with a direct impact of the stream into the gainer stars atmosphere, or V361 Lyr-type stars. Other parts of the ILA project are Stellar Bell (interesting pulsating variables of different types and periods - M, SR, RV Tau, RR Lyr, Delta Sct) and Novice(=New Variable) discoveries and classification with a subsequent monitoring for searching and studying possible multiple components of variability. Special mathematical methods have been developed to create a set of complementary software for statistically optimal modelling of variable stars of different types.

We perform numerical simulations to investigate the stellar wind from interacting binary stars. Our aim is to find analytical formulae describing the outflow structure. In each binary system the more massive star is in the asymptotic giant branch and
its wind is driven by a combination of pulsations in the stellar surface layers and radiation pressure on dust, while the less massive star is in the main sequence. Time averages of density and outflow velocity of the stellar wind are calculated and plotted as profiles against distance from the centre of mass and colatitude angle. We find that mass is lost mainly through the outer Lagrangian point L2. The resultant outflow develops into a spiral at low distances from the binary. The outflowing spiral is quickly smoothed out by shocks and becomes an excretion disk at larger distances. This leads to the formation of an outflow structure with an equatorial density excess, which is greater in binaries with smaller orbital separation. The pole-to-equator density ratio reaches a maximum value of $sim10^5$ at Roche-Lobe Overflow state. We also find that the gas stream leaving L2 does not form a circumbinary ring for stellar mass ratios above 0.78, when radiation pressure on dust is taken into account. Analytical formulae are obtained by curve fitting the 2-dimensional, azimuthally averaged density and outflow velocity profiles. The formulae can be used in future studies to setup the initial outflow structure in hydrodynamic simulations of common-envelope evolution and formation of planetary nebulae.
Polidan (1976) suggested that Be stars showing the CaII IR triplet in emission are interacting binaries. With the advent of the Gaia satellite, which will host a spectrometer to observe stars in the range 8470--8750 AA, we carried out a spectroscopic
survey of 150 Be stars, including Be binaries. We show that the Ca II triplet in emission, often connected with emission in Paschen lines, is an indicator of a peculiar environment in a Be star disc rather than a signature of an interacting binary Be star. However, Ca II emission without visible emission in Paschen lines is observed in interacting binary stars, as well as in peculiar objects. During the survey, a new interacting Be binary - HD 81357 - was discovered.
We use the Binary Population and Spectral Synthesis (BPASS) models to test the recent suggestion that red supergiants can provide an accurate age estimate of a co-eval stellar population that is unaffected by interacting binary stars. Ages are estima
ted by using both the minimum luminosity red supergiant and the mean luminosity of red supergiants in a cluster. We test these methods on a number of observed star clusters and find our results in agreement with previous estimates. Importantly we find the difference between the ages derived from stellar population models with and without a realistic population of interacting binary stars is only a few 100,000 years at most. We find that the mean luminosity of red supergiants in a cluster is the best method to determine the age of a cluster because it is based o the entire red supergiant population rather than using only the least luminous red supergiant.
V393 Scorpii is a Double Periodic Variable characterized by a relatively stable non-orbital photometric cycle of 253 days. Mennickent et al. argue for the presence of a massive optically thick disc around the more massive B-type component and describ
e the evolutionary stage of the system. In this paper we analyze the behavior of the main spectroscopic optical lines during the long non-orbital photometric cycle. We study the radial velocity of the donor determining their orbital elements and find a small but significant orbital eccentricity (e = 0.04). The donor spectral features are modeled and removed from the spectrum at every observing epoch using the light-curve model given by Mennickent et al. We find that the line emission is larger during eclipses and mostly comes from a bipolar wind. We find that the long cycle is explained in terms of a modulation of the wind strength; the wind has a larger line and continuum emissivity on the high state. We report the discovery of highly variable chromospheric emission in the donor, as revealed by Doppler maps of the emission lines MgII 4481 and CI 6588. We discuss notable and some novel spectroscopic features like discrete absorption components, especially visible at blue-depressed OI 7773 absorption wings during the second half-cycle, Balmer double emission with V/R-curves showing Z-type and S-type excursions around secondary and main eclipse, respectively, and H_beta emission wings extending up to +- 2000 km/s. We discuss possible causes for these phenomena and for their modulations with the long cycle.
Short period binary systems containing magnetic Ap stars are anomalously rare. This apparent anomaly may provide insight into the origin of the magnetic fields in theses stars. As an early investigation of this, we observed three close binary systems
that have been proposed to host Ap stars. Two of these systems (HD 22128 and HD 56495) we find contain Am stars, but not Ap stars. However, for one system (HD 98088) we find the primary is indeed an Ap star, while the secondary is an Am star. Additionally, the Ap star is tidally locked to the secondary, and the predominately dipolar magnetic field of the Ap star is roughly aligned with the secondary. Further investigations of HD 98088 are planned by the BinaMIcS collaboration.
