N2 - Equilibrium properties of the non-uniform diamagnetic phase in normal metals (Condon domains) are studied theoretically in the framework of Lifschitz-Kosevich-Shoenberg (LKS) approximation. It is found that characteristic diamagnetic lengths of the phase, e.g. a period of the domain structure and width of interface boundary between domains, as well as specific surface energy of domain wall, are strongly affected by electron correlations and depend on temperature, magnetic field and purity of the sample. The developed theory is in a good agreement with existent experiment data.
