Review text

The principle of degeneracy inhibition in Fermi gases by strong magnetic fields is formulated. It is shown that such fields postpone degeneracy in an ideal Dirac electron gas to higher densities or lower temperatures. This leads to a changing of the state equation of gas. In application to hypothetical stellar object with arbitrary strong fields such effect, in particular, results in the reduction of the luminosity of the object for its given mass and interior temperature.
