Danielle Fong @DanielleFong re superconductor, asked my old princeton buddy, now a materials science prof at nyu Thanks for sending this! No, I hadn't noticed it yet. Unlike the case of lutetium hydride, these experiments shouldn't be all that challenging for other groups to reproduce. A lot of great materials synthesis work is done in Korea. If a time traveler from the future told me that room temperature superconductivity would be discovered by a random group in Korea, I would say, yeah, that sounds plausible. Also, the data don't look outlandish, though I'm not an expert in these particular techniques, and I've only skimmed the paper so far. If I wanted to be critical, I would say that the magnetic susceptibility measurements aren't gorgeous, and I can't tell what configuration they used for transport. Still, it does seem to be a superconductivity- or-fraud-choose-one situation. It's difficult to learn about the authors. I hadn't heard about them prior to this, and I don't see much of a publication record. The English abstract of their Korean language paper (published April 30th) comes across as naive to say the least. Achieving room temperature superconductivity is_hard_ and scientific fraud does occur, so external confirmation will be essential. Fingers crossed! 1:27 PM Jul 26, 2023 545.3K Views

Sadly the LK-99 appears as it does through diamagnetism as opposed to superconductivity.

superconductivity so good slay haha

sophie → @netcapgirl superconductivity so good slay haha zero resistance at room temperature gang gang yes yes yes so many use cases including ultra efficient energy transmission thank you lopez you're right we do need to wait & see if these results can be reproduced scientific method so good yomy413 sent GG user29286... sent Duck GG 11:54 AM.

And, the common ones: super-cheap MRI machines, MagLev trains everywhere, and a super efficient electric grid

Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano Jul 25 7. And, the common ones: super-cheap MRI machines, MagLev trains everywhere, and a super efficient electric grid. Basically, this: 80 122 t 636 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano Jul 25 8/8 I cannot contain my excitement. It feels like January of 2020 with a huge wave coming that no one realizes yet, but in a much better way. What a time to be alive!!

Your iPhone won't overheat when playing subway surfer with a youtube video in the corner anymore

Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan0 Jul 25 3. Nuclear fusion reactors rely on superconductors for plasma confinement. Modern designs use RBCO/YBCO superconductors cooled with LN2 or Liquid He, creating a huge temperature gradient and challenging operation. Ambient superconductors enable a whole host of new reactor designs 19 32 1336 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano · Jul 25 4. Quantum computers use superconductors to preserve coherence in qubits. Small changes in temperature and pressure can cause the entire QC to fail during operation. Imagine a room temperature quantum computer on your desktop - now possible. 481 8,257 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan0 Jul 25 31 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano 7,945 . 402 5. Superconductors might be the best batteries out there. Simply inject a current and keep it in the coil until you need it. Previously, too costly to maintain. Now, totally feasible. 1.5M 7,935 1.4M 1.3M ... 6. Your iPhone won't overheat when playing subway surfer with a youtube video in the corner anymore! Ultra-efficient computer chips will have O resistive losses during operation with superconductors. No need for cooling fans!! 11:35 PM . Jul 25, 2023 1.3M Views

Today might have seen the biggest physics discovery of my lifetime

Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano · Jul 25 Today might have seen the biggest physics discovery of my lifetime. I don't think people fully grasp the implications of an ambient temperature / pressure superconductor. Here's how it could totally change our lives. 2,477 12 27K 72 127.2K Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan0 Jul 25 1.100 billion kWh of electricity are wasted on transmission losses each year in the US alone. That's equivalent to 3 of our largest nuclear reactors running 24/7. Superconductivity enables lossless electricity transmission at high voltages and currents. 1 678 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan ₁27.7M ↑ 11.8K 2M 2. According to the authors, the LK-99 material can be prepared in about 34 hrs with extremely basic lab equipment (a mortar & pestle, basic vacuum, and furnace). These results could replicate within days-weeks.
