Superconductivity - LK-99

This superconductivity situation has been interesting, to say the least:


0:53 - 24:37

The authors wrote a rough pre-print and assuredly put the names on the thing.

[2307.12008] The First Room-Temperature Ambient-Pressure Superconductor

[2307.12037] Superconductor Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O showing levitation at room temperature and atmospheric pressure and mechanism

"For the first time in the world" must be satisfying to write. The men are hungry for the Nobel. Already, there are tens of papers published on the subject within days to set their own space for refinement of resolution understanding on micro-structure functions.

Has anyone been successful in reproducing these results yet? Still very skeptical

No. The reproducibility efforts show heterogeneous results. The combinatory alloy ingredient structural arrangements are what is needed to replicate the findings.

Honestly, there have been too many papers retracted about room-temp superconductors in recent years for me to get properly excited about this paper.

I hope this isn't another false dawn.

The 2020 paper retracted from Nature blew people's confidence in these measures and claims.

Fluke or not, I think the research can give valuable results since there are anomalies that can standardize new points of reference from fresh data. And the research enthusiasm can't be negative.
