It is shown theoretically that alternating external fields, electric or elastic, can induce a non-homogeneous
time-dependent electron magnetization of the conductor placed in a constant magnetic field - in addition to
equilibrium magnetism described by Pauli and Landau. The spatial distribution of induced magnetization
in semi-infinite sample is found as well as integral susceptibility of finite size specimen. In view of high
sensitivity of contemporary magnetic measurements based on SQUID technique, our estimations show
the observability of both the effects. They can be used as a magnetic method to study the spectral and
relaxation properties of electron subsystem.
