Abstract

The conditions of emergence of various types of self-localized states of conduction electrons placed in a quantizing magnetic field and strongly interacting with homopolar nonlinear elastic medium are determined. Special attention is paid to the case of coexistence of these states. Phase diagrams are constructed for magnetic and nonlinear condensons. The obtained results are used for describing the states of conduction electrons in antiferromagnets and electrons injected into dense gaseous helium. An expression is obtained for the time of tunnel transition between self-localized electron states in a nonpolar elastic medium. It is shown that this time can be considerably reduced by placing the system in a strong magnetic field.
