Will a possible breakthrough for room-temperature superconducting materials hold up to scrutiny?

Physicist Ranga Dias and his colleagues have twice claimed to make a room-temperature superconductor. But many researchers question the evidence. Physicist Ranga Dias and his colleagues have twice claimed to make a room-temperature superconductor. But many researchers question the evidence.

By teaching a machine to learn a few quantum tricks, physicists have uncovered a strange new phase of hydrogen in solid form.

A new machine learning technique has performed quantum mechanic simulations with an unprecedented number of atoms, predicting a new phase of solid hydrogen.
