Resumen:
The phase diagram of Sr3Ru2O7 contains a metamagnetic transition that bifurcates to enclose an anomalous
phase with intriguing propertiesa large resistivity with anisotropy that breaks the crystal-lattice symmetry.
We propose that this is a magnetic analog of the spatially inhomogeneous superconducting Fulde-Ferrell-
Larkin-Ovchinnikov state. Based on a microscopic theory of Stoner magnetism, we derive a Ginzburg-Landau
expansion where the magnetization transverse to the applied field can become spatially inhomogeneous. We
show that this reproduces the observed phase diagram of Sr3Ru2O7.
