Any news about the replication efforts on that superconductor paper?


According to the original estimates, there should have been enough time for some labs to have completed replication attempts by now. Considering the process and materials were viewed as simple by most experts, it feels that we should have had more information by now, one way or the other. I could only find random tweets and reddit posts, but nothing authoritative yet. Does anybody know if a reputable lab or company has finished a replication attempt yet?

I read that monday would be the soonests labs could practically prepare a first attempt, something about ~5 days for actually baking all the materials.

Also that someone is working with the original scientist for verification

Sorry, can't find the citations, I am on mobile...
