In March the journal Nature published an article claiming that a room temperature Superconductor had been discovered.
Evidence of near-ambient superconductivity in a N-doped lutetium hydride <https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05742-0> I was a little surprised Nature decided to publish it because the same people made the same claim a few years ago but the journal had to retract it, and now to their intense embarrassment it looks like history is going to be repeating itself; the lead author sent another paper to the Physical Review Journal and now it looks like they're going to have to retract that paper too: ‘A very disturbing picture’: another retraction imminent for controversial physicist <https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02401-2> Meanwhile a completely different group has claimed to have found a different substance that superconducts at room temperature and pressure. I'll believe it when I see it: The First Room-Temperature Ambient-Pressure Superconductor <https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.12008> John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> 9kd -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
