Summary from the TLDR newsletter
The LK-99 saga was an unusually swift resolution of a high-profile puzzle and a great example of how claims are verified in the scientific community. Researchers have determined that LK-99 is not a superconductor and clarified its actual properties. This article presents an overview of the research done on LK-99 over the past few weeks. The properties that made LK-99 appear to be a superconductor at first were caused by impurities in the material.
