The Koreans are especially scathing towards their own. Probably due to a history of scamming each other. What's especially telling of a scam is that they claimed partnerships with companies that denied it, and then shut down their website entirely afterwards. These are things that scammers have done...

LK-99 Is the Superconductor of the Summer
Social media users are excited about what would be a breakthrough in solid state physics, but many experts in the field are cautiously skeptical.

LK-99, a small piece of synthesized superconductor seen here levitating over a magnet, has been a sensation on Twitter.CreditCredit...Hyun-Tak Kim

By Kenneth Chang
This is the second room-temperature superconductor claim that Kenneth Chang has written about this year.

Aug. 3, 2023
Updated 3:22 p.m. ET

When Sinéad Griffin of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California had some new findings to share about a seemingly magical material that has made users of Twitter go gaga, she did not have to do much to gain a lot of attention.

The unusual material, named LK-99, has been presented to the world as a superconductor that would carry electricity at room temperatures with zero resistance.

On Twitter — or X, as Elon Musk has renamed it (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/03/technology/twitter-x-tweets-elon-musk.html)) — “LK-99” has been a trending topic in recent days, and enthusiasts have hailed what they believe to be a long-sought holy grail of physics, one that would transform everyday life with new technologies to solve climate change and make levitating trains commonplace.

On Monday evening, Dr. Griffin let the social media world know of her findings in a short post (https://twitter.com/sineatrix/status/1686182852667572224?s=20)) that contained only a link to her preliminary paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.16892)) and an animated GIF of President Barack Obama dropping a microphone at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2016.

The response was rhapsodic. The mic drop was interpreted by some X users as confirmation that the holy grail had been found.

https://twitter.com/elwalvador/status/1686222668444442624

Dr. Griffin thus provided another twist in a roller coaster of excitement and deflation that has enthralled LK-99 fans for more than a week.

>>15626256
Why wouldn't you want it to be real?

The saga started when a team of South Korean scientists, most working for a tiny start-up company named Quantum Energy Research Center in Seoul, posted two (https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.12008)) reports (https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.12037)) that described their technique for making LK-99 and the measurements that they said showed the material’s superconducting prowess. (The name of the material comes from the initials of the surnames of two of the scientists — Sukbae Lee and Ji-Hoon Kim — and the year 1999, when they say they first synthesized LK-99.)

Most strikingly, they provided a video showing a small sample partially levitating over a magnet. The levitation, the scientists said, demonstrated the Meissner effect, which ensures zero magnetic field inside a superconductor.

Alex Kaplan, who had majored in physics at Princeton University, found out about LK-99 on Hacker News (https://news.ycombinator.com/)), a news aggregation website.

“I was just shocked,” Mr. Kaplan said in an interview. “My jaw dropped to the floor, and I started calling every friend that I knew in physics.”

That night, he shared his excitement on Twitter.

https://twitter.com/alexkaplan0/status/1684044616528453633

With that tweet, which has received more than 132,000 likes, Mr. Kaplan joined a group of LK-99 fans who propelled excitement on social media over the past week. Most of the enthusiasts are not experts, however. Mr. Kaplan, for example, works as the head of coffee product at Cometeer, a company that sells flash-frozen coffee extract.

The scientists who study superconductivity and solid state physics have been quieter. They appreciate the curiosity — their work rarely draws a frenzy of public glee — but they are puzzled as to why this particular room-temperature superconductor claim took off wildly while many earlier claims (https://twitter.com/MichaelSFuhrer/status/1686644227885944833?s=20)) that did not prove out came and went without fanfare.

>>15626312

>>15626163
Why didn't he flip the magnet over? It's be so easy. Hmmm...

>>15626315
Stop. Asking. Questions.

backbros, we're winning right now but I kind of miss the oversisters dominating us

“It’s great having public interest in solid state physics research,” Dr. Griffin said, “with due caution of it being explained correctly and with the caveats I think that are needed for some of this discussion. But I think it’s fun.”

The skepticism remains, because the data provided by the Korean scientists thus far falls short of being convincing, many experts say.

“It is too soon to conclude anything about superconductivity,” said Sankar Das Sarma, director of the Condensed Matter Theory Center at the University of Maryland. “That data is extremely suggestive, but it is by no means compelling.”

Dr. Das Sarma has posted commentary on the center’s Twitter account. He pointed out, for instance, that at the temperature that Korean scientists claim LK-99 turns into a superconductor, the electrical resistance drops, but not to zero. Indeed, the resistance of the material, made of the mineral apatite with some of the lead atoms replaced by copper, is about 100 times higher than pure copper and other good conducting metals.

https://twitter.com/condensed_the/status/1683879990318731266

The levitation video is also not definitive, because non-superconducting materials including graphite can also partially float in the same way.

Last weekend, Mr. Kaplan, who had kicked off much of the initial excitement, posted an image (https://twitter.com/alexkaplan0/status/1686022711728881665?s=20)) of a Magic 8 ball that read, “It’s probably over.” Then he saw Dr. Griffin’s paper.

https://twitter.com/alexkaplan0/status/1686208150590935041

In an interview, Dr. Griffin said her paper, titled “Origin of correlated isolated flat bands in copper-substituted lead phosphate apatite,” did not confirm the hype.

If you're winning then why are you still down in the prediction market?
https://manifold.markets/QuantumObserver/will-the-lk99-room-temp-ambient-pre

“I’m not describing superconductivity in these calculations, for sure,” she said. Rather, her computer simulations show that the substitution of copper in the apatite did result in an unusual rearrangement of the atoms. The volume of the mineral’s crystal structure actually shrank slightly. That in turn appeared to shift the electronic structure to one that could be conducive to superconductivity.

The electronic features, known as “flat bands,” appear similar to what was observed in high-temperature superconductors, a class of materials discovered in the 1980s. (The name — high-temperature superconductors — is somewhat misleading. They work at temperatures considerably warmer than had been observed previously, but still colder than any naturally occurring place on Earth.)

The features could facilitate strong interactions between a lot of electrons, which could give rise to superconductivity — but not always.

Dr. Griffin concedes that the electronic structure calculations are less definitive than her findings about the shrinkage of the crystal because of the vast number of electrons involved. “There are inherently lots of approximations that you have to make in doing this,” she said. “It’s not a definitive calculation of what you measure in experiment.”

A group of Chinese scientists posted a paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.16040)) escribing similar calculations that found a similar electronic structure.

“I truly don’t get the excitement about her preprint,” said Douglas Natelson, a professor of physics at Rice University in Houston. “That’s not to say that it’s wrong, just that theorists and computational materials folks very often produce preprints based on the latest claimed material of interest. There’s nothing exceptional in that.”

On Wednesday, Dr. Griffin followed up with a long thread of tweets (https://twitter.com/sineatrix/status/1686659102674751488)) deflating the optimistic interpretations of the mic drop GIF.

Fuck you

Masochism

>>15626333
>#StopTheSteal

The cycle of excitement and deflation repeated later in the day when scientists at Southeast University in Nanjing, China, reported that they had synthesized LK-99 (https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.01192)) and measured zero resistance in one of the samples.

https://twitter.com/Andercot/status/1686805961124855810

However, the reported zero resistance occurred when the sample was cooled to minus-260 degrees Fahrenheit, not room temperatures, and it was a gradual diminishing of electrical resistance, not the sharp drop that would be expected of a superconductor. The data also showed a resistance dip at higher temperatures, which the Southeast University scientists attributed to impurities or an instrumental glitch.

Dr. Das Sarma was again unimpressed.

Like the original LK-99 papers, “Southeast also has no transition, just instrumental artifacts,” he wrote in a tweet. (https://twitter.com/condensed_the/status/1686901855358427136)) “What is the goal here? No one can fool nature.”

Dr. Das Sarma said he knew that the research groups of several prominent physicists were working to synthesize the material and make measurements to determine whether LK-99 is indeed a superconductor.

“A claim this huge has to be scrutinized very, very carefully,” Dr. Das Sarma said. “And has to be duplicated by independent groups in as many ways as possible before we declare victory.”

He added, “I believe this can happen. But that does not mean this has happened.”

Wow maybe it's because other claims are obvious scams with all the "it's too complicated, please wait 2 more weeks meanwhile give me money" while with this one people were producing ASAP and theoretically anyone could hop in.

Why would you think there's not multiple samples? We have multiple videos of other people producing the same visual effect.

>>15626358
did they ever claim that they only have one piece of it?
The new one floats at a steeper angle so maybe they picked a floatier one for the second video.

L, K, & K seem to be being stingy with the sample(s). If they have multiple chucks (and therefore a somewhat reliable method of preparation), they should be sampling several major organizations. There's no way the researchers behind this don't understand how important a discovery this is; three or four small samples to major players in the superconductor game should be enough to quell the murmurs

But they're being cagey

Ktard here, is it possible that the lack of full levitation has to do with sample impurity? Like could it be that the reason it isn’t fully floating is that a decent portion of the sample is dead weight impurities weighing the actual superconducting material down?

>>15626473
Depends the orientation, and note how they didn't flip it, this is starting to look like a scam

>>15626479
stingy and cagey. exactly. what does that tell you? why are hopefags so delusional to all the red flags? yes technically theres a very small chance it could be true, but theyre so tunnel visioned on it that they are failing to notice all the sus shit theyre doing

>>15626575
This entire publication is a big K-drama in real time. Half of them didn't want to publish but a small group said "fuck it".

>>15626575
supposedly the fired physic doc published a preprint way before they were prepared to relase it

>>15626509
That would be the Japanese, retard. Koreans are stupid little cucks that got bred by the Jomon bvlls.

Any new paper I should check out?

>>15626535
I agree that the video is underwhelming, he could be showing so much more, like poking it, turning it around, turning the magnet around, lifting it etc..
But also you can see that when he rotates the magnet, the piece also rotates with it, which would be very odd unless it'was getting pulled

>>15626586
He's either a hoaxer or holding back for some kind of grand reveal. Like kickflipping a hoverboard during a visit from the president.

whoever keeps spamming these generated images of smug jacked korean scientists, I appreciate you.

>>15626575
They fired some guy a few months ago and he decided to publish the version he had.

>>15626163
doesn't add anything compared to the first video
why not cut a small part off and make it levitate?

Isn't there a piece of the sample that floats without a single part touching the ground? God fucking damnit the first one was so close to floating

>>15626553
That's not cool enough tho

>>15626163
https://youtu.be/BdOt-alhZSc?t=3

>>15626605
you saw it anon. the bigfoot tier video of a speck floating sourced via an anonymous chinese telegram post.

>>15626602
it shows a second sample, so at least shows that they have more than one of whatever that actually is

>>15626526
If they have five samples, they have a semi reliable way to produce the substance. If they have a one off sample with strange properties that they're afraid of losing lest they can't reverse engineer it, fine, but that belies the idea that they have samples. Also the floating rock in the second video shows signs of wear, like it's been handled quite a bit or polished in some way. That's quite different from the sample in the first video. It's not reasonable to think they have chunks all over their lab but they still refuse to sample a few notable organizations or individuals

The possible reasons I can think of that they wouldn't be sampling are 1) almost no "superconductive" material or 2) don't really know how it works or even if its the claimed LK-99 structure causing superconductivity, and they don't want to get scooped by someone else figuring out the real cause or origin of the superconductivity. The whole announcement was half baked at best, so the latter is a real possibility. But if different samples keep getting pictured by the lab, they're fast running out of reasons to be so stingy and cagey.

This

>>15626575
Maybe the material does not have a deterministic structure so it doesn't make a good superconductor most of the time and instead of spending decades fucking around with it, that rogue guy decided to crowdsource it. The other guys are salty or money grubbing or don't want to admit they can't replicate it.

>>15626537
This guy is describing percolation theory. There has to be enough pathways of the superconducting material through the bulk that touch each other to end up with the entire material acting like a superconductor.

>MFW I read another oversister cope post

>>15626614
They claimed to make samples over one thousand times. So clearly they do not have a reliable way, and this is especially evident when the very few (or even single) sample they have cannot show full levitation, only partial.

This is insane. One minute it's over because they're refusing to share samples, the next minute they drop a new fucking 1080p video of the second sample they have demonstrating flux pinning. I can't keep up with this shit.

Ahh. Good to know it has a name. Is it being seriously considered here or has it been deboonked? What about percolation in a superconductor with a mix of Tc's? Could this explain some of the strange results such as the Chinese results, the flat heat capacity in the original paper, not having sudden switching etc?

My theory is that it's real, but the south korean team is purposefully withholding crucial information about how you make it. Something with the oxygen probably. They know what extra step you need to do and simply don't want to share it until they can get the sample replicated perfectly every time

One way to test for diamagnetism is to see if the sample is repelled from the BOTTOM side of a magnet (diamagnetism) or if it can float beneath the magnet (superconductor).
Since this sample is going to be a bit too heavy to float below the magnet, it could get some help from some oil and a paramagnetic buoyant substance. But make sure it would sink without the magnet.
Sink with magnet = diamagnetism.
No sink = superconductivity.

Another thing to do would be to heat the sample above 400K. If it still dances, it's a diamagnet.

These experiments are both extremely simple but I am unaware of anyone having done either of them.

WTF.

It does not matter in the slightest. Whether it is proven real or fake, the status of random people's belief is completely irrelevant. Why are you faggots so hellbent on convincing people it isn't real when their thoughts and beliefs are entirely immaterial?

>>15626163

It's clearly locked in place.

>>15627098
Yeah these fucks would have kept it secret another 25 years if that's what it took to milk the most money out of it.

>>15627078
they're getting completely final results before they publish, rather than shitting out sketchy videos and preliminary results that just feed hype and prove nothing

>>15627078
Negative results barely get published or take lot of time. Positive results get published immediately.

If there were any signs of real rtsc someone would have leaked it already.

>>15627145
Again I ask: what the fuck does it matter? The result will be the result regardless of how many people are convinced it is real or fake. You fuckers need to get off the internet, Facebook made you think that your opinion is relevant, and it isn't. At all.

>>15627212
Yes, it is. That is how it worked before the internet. You could have an opinion, but absolutely no one listened to, or was concerned with, your opinion. The internet has given you a platform to spew your retarded opinion, and that has you convinced that your opinion means something. It doesn't.
Imagine a 4 year old downy kid weighing in on whether this is real or not. Now plaster your face on that kid... because it is you.

>>15627095
They are too busy forming an appropriately diverse committee of rocket scientists to determine how many genders there are so they can then appoint another committee to write the 500-page grant proposal for building the appropriate bathrooms for another appropriately diverse group of scientists to write a 500-page manual of safety and buck-passing protocols for dealing with red phosphorous. I.e. red phosphorous should never be in the same room as dilators to avoid contamination... unless you are into that sort of thing.

>>15627251

A week ago, he would have said flat-out that RTSC's are impossible.
