Resolving the high-field superconducting phase (HFSP), often called as the Q-phase, and the antiferromagnetic or spin-density-wave (SDW) order appearing in the phase remains a crucial issue on the superconductor CeCoIn. It is shown that a switching of the SDW domain due to a tiny change of the magnetic field direction in HFSP, reported and interpreted as an evidence of the presence of a -triplet pairing inducing the SDW order [S. Gerber et al., Nature Physics 10, 126 (2014)], can be explained with no triplet pairing component if the -wave superconducting order in HFSP includes the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) modulation parallel to the field. This result corroborates the picture that HFSP of CeCoIn and the SDW order found only in the phase are consequences of the strong paramagnetic pair-breaking in this -wave superconductor.
