CDW state:
•rich phase diagram due to the interplay of
competing Pauli paramagnetiPauli paramagnetic and orbital orbital
effects of magnetic field
SC state:
•at P < Pc: coexists with the CDW state; the
SC onset temperature is drastically increased
in the coexistence region;
•at P > Pc: bulk SC state with a highly
anisotropic Hc2 near Tc(0) and a clear
manifestation of paramagnetic pair-breaking paramagnetic pair-breaking
