Retraction of SCTL Full Levitation Claim. It Was the Lorentz Force

SCTL has retracted the claimed full levitation video and the claim of full levitation. They say it was from the Lorentz force. A lone researcher on the team fooled himself and uploaded the video without checking with other members of the team. SCT lab : “I apologize for causing confusion. The last video of sample …

UPDATE: SCTL Retracts Levitation Claim for PCPOSOS Room Temperature Superconductor

New video from SCTL Korea room temperature superconductor experimenters claimed to shows a very strong full levitation effect. Full levitation would be evidence of the Meissner effect found only in superconductors. I have shown how the levitation evidence was originally partial levitation. Critics says partial levitation can be from diamagnetics or even some iron contamination. …

How to Optimize the Structure and Quality of Thin Film Nobium for Superconducting Circuits

The performance of superconducting microwave circuits is strongly influenced by the material properties of the superconducting film and substrate. While progress has been made in understanding the importance of surface preparation and the effect of surface oxides, the complex effect of superconductor film structure on microwave losses is not yet fully understood. In this study, …

Korean SCT Lab Paper Partially Describes How to Make Potential Room Temperature Superconductor Pb-Cu-P-S-O

SCT Lab published a paper on how they make the Pb-Cu-P-S-O compound that has some pieces with potential room temperature superconductivity. The description of the process to make it is partial. How they get the powders is not described. They did not give mass ratios (cited intellectual property). The testing process for zero resistivity did …

The Cases For and Against LK99-Type Room Temperature Superconductors

This is a review of the arguments and evidence for and against LK99 type materials as room temperature superconductors. Case Against Cuprous Sulfide and Iron Contamination The claims against LK99 and LK99-variants materials as a superconductor is that cuprous sulfide has some transition temperatures that match up with some of the bulk LK99 readings. They …

Elon Says Grok AI Acid Test Would Be Finding the Extremely Unpopular But Right Answers

With Grok, @xAI is attempting to create an AI that reasons from first principles, which is fundamental if you care about getting as close to the truth as possible. The acid test would be reaching a conclusion that is correct even if it is extremely unpopular, which means being right even when the training data …

Korean Video Coverage of PCPOSOS Room Temperature Superconductor

Korean news agencies have coverage of the PCPOSOS room temperature superconductor. They show all of the videos and slides including ones with full levitation and flux pinning effects. I would point out that none of the research papers that claim to falsify the room temperature superconducting claims have been able to replicate partial levitation with …

Korean Room Temperature Superconductor Talk Was As Abstract Described

There are some people who expected more from the PCPOSOS room temperature superconductor talk. They strangely expected the team to bring the sample and show it live. BUT that is not what the abstract of the talk said. The abstract said they would show two videos of levitation and two videos of magnets. This is …
