Read this comment thread from SC researchers: https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/159g2k4/comment/...

Lots of problems with the paper, they claim. It is not up to the standards of current SC research. One of them says Dias's work shows more merit than this.



All valid points but just below that comment someone asked if he/she was reading the new paper (apparently there's an older paper), he/she didn't respond/haven't responded yet.


They did now – https://old.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/159g2k4/roomtemp...

Either way we should hear from people trying to replicate it soon.


Thanks for the update, after reading that, and the fact the patent was dated 2021, my faith is lost.


His criticism of figure 1b doesn't seem reasonable to me, given that the are resistance measurements in 1a and 1c that show zero resistance coming and going in roughly the expected way as a function of temperature and magnetic field. Unlikely that the connections would break and reconnect in just the right way.

Nevertheless I'm still quite skeptical.
