Abstract
The B-T phase diagram of alpha-(ET)(2)KHg(SCN)(4) has been studied under qu asi-hydrostatic pressure by means of resistance measurements. Our proposed B-T phase diagrams at different pressures are qualitatively very similar to the theoretically predicted diagrams of an imperfectly nested charge-densi ty-wave system. Furthermore, we observed indications of the existence of th eoretically proposed field-induced charge-density-wave transitions. The phe nomenon of phase inversion in the quantum oscillations and its relation to the phase diagram is also discussed.
