LK-99 Holy Grail of Ambient Temp Superconductor?

First claimed successful replication of LK-99 Accomplished by a team at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology and posted 30 minutes ago. Why this is evidence: The LK-99 flake slightly levitates for both orientations of the magnetic field, meaning it is not simply a magnetized piece of iron or similar 'magnetic material'. A simple magnetic flake would be attracted to one polarity of the strong magnet, and repelled by the other. A diamagnet would be repelled under either orientation, since it resists and expels all fields regardless of the polarity. Caveats There is no way to verify the orientation of the strong magnet in this video, also, there are yet to be published experimental measured values of this sample. Diamagnetism is a property of superconductors but without measured and verified data, this is just suggestive of a result. Take-away If this synthesis was indeed successful, then this material is easy enough to be made by labs other than the original research team. I would watch carefully for results out of Argonne National Lab, who are reported to be working on their own synthesis of a sample. This overall corroborates two independent simulation studies that investigated the original Korean authors claim about material and crystal structure, and both studies supported the claims. Lawrence Berkeley National Lab: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.16892.pdf Shenyang National Lab: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.16040.pdf The attached video shows a small flake of their sample responding to an external magnetic field.

a fraud.

 

Truly astounding.

Now I understand why OGs would not suffer fools gladly and call out moronic replies.

 

"If you go on Amazon, you can purchase for under $100 a levitating flower pot, and that has nothing to do with superconductivity. That's actually just magnetic repulsion."

What makes you say that? Any basis for this other than an article that claims so?

 

The koreans were too fast to jump the gun and wanted the credit. It is mainly coppers, when was the last time you see coppers are superconductor material.

Here is an update and conclusion.

Thanks, I did not read up on this issue in the past 3 weeks.
