VPS Awana has been trying for weeks to get a good LK99 replication. He has been in direct contact with the Korean team. He published two arxiv preprints talking about how his previous samples didn’t work. NEW most promising replication yet: The National Physics Lab New Delphi, led by VPS Awana, has finally succeeded in …
The odds would be overwhelming for Sabine’s prediction that LK99 will prove not to be a room temperature superconductor. If an explanation is that it was a regular copper sulfide transition with some minor magnetic effect. However, the theory and simulation work indicates that certain variations of copper positioning and oxygenation might still be highly …
Princeton University has reported their research which will post to Arxiv tomorrow. They failed to get superconducting results but could not get the copper to the right lead sites. Results where the group fail to get any partial levitation are not good attempts at replication. 1. Samples following the described synthesis are multi-phase 2. Single …
A Peking University group did get some levitation in an Lk99 replication attempt. Their sample is not a superconductor. They describe the semi-levitation is the result of magnetic torque. Guo et. al synthesized #LK99 with the published methodology and matched the material composition to the original using X-Ray Diffraction. They observed levitation in the sample …
Researchers at Korea University of Energy and Technology confirmed that the crystal structure of a sample of ‘LK-99’, proposed room temperature superconductor, is the same as the crystal structure presented in the original papers by Sukbae Lee, Jihoon Kim et al. The College of Energy Engineering is the only external institution conducting research after receiving …
Lanzhou University researchers analysis on improving the superconducting of LK99 with more oxygen. They conclude that the hybridization between the Cu d-states of the Cu doped with the p state of the fully occupied 1/4 occupied O1 atoms may be the key for the realization of the room temperature superconductivity. In order to improve the …
People on the internet want instant gratification on the LK99 room temperature superconductor science. We can hope for this and want this but this science is difficult. I describe in these two videos how difficult but also how important LK99 science is. The positive partial results only happen in about 10% of the experiments where …
There are real LK99 Videos and there is an increasing number of fake LK99 room temperature superconductor videos. There are pure video effect fakes and those using strings or wires. However, there are real videos of flakes and pieces with partial levitation. Fake Chinese #LK99 replication Someone claimed to be from University of Science and …
Andrew McCalip, who works on space manufacturing at Varda Space, has had the most public and possibly first replication of the proposed LK99 superconductor in the United States has made new samples. It is a larger and better sample. Will try to drop a video tomorrow. Can confirm two things. Note this is with a …
First video of LK-99 Full Levitation with flux pinning. The video was posted to the Chinese video-sharing site BiliBili and claims to be a highly pure synthesized sample of LK-99. UPDATE- Report that this was faked Update on fake Chinese replication video of #LK99 showing complete levitation The poster has said on their Weibo that …
Huazhong University of Science and Technology has published a preprint paper on Arxiv that claims successful growth and room temperature ambient-pressure magnetic levitation. The chinese team from HUST has successfully for the first time verify and synthesize the LK-99 crystals which can be magnetically levitated with larger levitated angle than Sukbae Lee’s sample at room …
