Hi,

You may recall that years ago, I suggested on this list that strained lattices 
might result in a preferential vibration
direction for the atoms of the lattice (Bose condensate of phonons). That in 
turn leads to vibration primarily in a
single plain. When that happens, ballistic conduction of electrons might be 
possible parallel to those vibration plains,
since the passage of the electron would rarely be interrupted.

This story turns out to have been around the net for a long time
It appeared in the record as a compound named LK-99 = Lee-Kim (1999): 
IOW - they discovered it nearly a quarter of a century ago.. makes one wonder 
if this post is not an odd troll 

Not to mention, an unreasonable time to isolate, confirm and cook up; patents 
filed in 2021, and granted in 2023—hence only now the public articles and 
trademark applications ... which likely means it is not robust or usable.and 
they are grasping at straws

Well, ask Stanley. You'd need a medium to ask Martin.

It won't get published if it can't be replicated.  Ask Fleischman.  He
should have told everyone where he got his electrodes.

This discovery is truly remarkable for more than one reason. You have to wonder 
about the thought process that led these guys to this particular method. 
Another thing is that there are no exotic materials used. Practically anyone 
who read this paper could reproduce the results unless some essential step was 
intentionally left out.

2023-07-26 Thread Jones Beene
There have been other claimants - this is not the first but it may become the 
first to be fully replicated and notably it shows the Meissner effect which 
most of the others did not,
The affiliation of the authors is not clear
The Superconductor is Pb10−xCux(PO4)6O (a common mineral) showing levitation at 
room temperature and atmospheric pressure
