21. 0(T). Strictly speaking, this state is metallic only in zero and low magnetic field. In quantizing magnetic fields, the field-induced spin-density wave (FISDW) state arises in this region of the phase space and this state is considered to be semi-metallic (Refs. 23 and 24).

25. The pressure reading of the manganin gauge at He temperatures was calibrated in a separate experiment, using the superconducting Sn gauge. The decrease in pressure with cooling from 290 K to helium temperatures was typically ≈0.3-0.4 GPa.
26. 6 in the SDW (i.e., AF) phase and are not observed in the FISDW state (Ref. 22). Our data agree with this statement: no signatures of RO were observed in the studied samples in the FISDW range at P= 0.7 -1.4 GPa (Ref. 25). In contrast, RO are well seen in the SDW phase away from the transition [see inset to Fig. 2(a)]. For the purposes of the current paper it is important only that for the one-dimensional Fermi surface, the RO (i) have much shorter period than the FISDW anomalies and (ii) have a nonmonotonic temperature dependence of the amplitude. Due to these features, we used the RO as an additional argument to identify the SDW phase.
