Inhomogeneous Magnetism and Hidden Order in URu2Si2

Recent high-pressure studies have been particularly effective in revealing unusual properties of inhomogeneous magnetism in the heavy-electron superconductor URu2Si2. In this paper a narrow selection of the important experimental observations elucidating the pressure-induced two-phase competition is reviewed.
