Abstract:$^{55}$Mn NMR spectra in the magnetically ordered state in Sr$_{0.98}$La$_{0.02}$MnO$_3$ manganite have been obtained and the magnetic susceptibility has been measured. It has been shown that the microscopic phase separation into the antiferromagnetic matrix and ferromagnetic clusters, which can be presented as magnetic polarons, is observed in the long-range magnetic order region.
