热度持续多日的韩国LK-99室温超导事件，迎来了国际权威科学期刊的定论。 8月16日，Nature杂志发文《LK-99不是超导体——科学侦探如何解开谜团》，梳理了全球多家科研机构证实LK-99并非超导体的证据，解释了这种材料之所以会展现类似超导行为的原因。 电阻率 ...

If there was any hope remaining that LK-99 might be a room-temperature superconductor, it’s pretty much dead now. In fact, it’s worse than that. Pure samples of the substance show that it is an ...

All that Andrew McCalip wanted for his 34th birthday was a shipment of red phosphorus. It was a tough request—the substance happens to be an ingredient for cooking meth and is controlled by the US ...

Superconductivity at room temperature – a holy grail concept for physicists – has sparked a buzz across Chinese social media after a pair of university students from Wuhan claimed to have achieved the ...

Researchers seem to have solved the puzzle of LK-99. Scientific detective work has unearthed evidence that the material is not a superconductor, and clarified its actual properties. The conclusion ...

If LK-99 is the real deal, it could be a game-changer for everything from quantum computing and medical imaging to energy and transportation. But there are a lot of red flags.

South Korean scientists claim to have made a superconductor, LK-99, that works at room temperature. Experts are skeptical, but if such a material exists, it could boost energy production and storage.

Imagine riding a levitating train at speeds of 14,000 miles per hour — cutting the trip from New York to Los Angeles to just 20 minutes. A team of South Korean researchers say the science fiction ...

Experts continue to push back against extraordinary claims of a room-temperature superconductor. But even a flop could open up new pathways for materials research. Jackson Ryan was CNET's science ...
