@dangaristo Not sure you saw this from this morning, but Rochester now has concluded misconduct occured (source is the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle) democratandchronicle.com/story/news/202…
Realized none of the students in my class had watched Futurama when I brought up the "Why does Ross, the largest friend, not simply eat the other five" meme while discussing Ostwald ripening. I guess this means I'm out touch.
Featured article from the new Chemical Physics collection! Authored by: Himal Pokhrel, Joseph Anthony Duncan, Jr., Yagya Bahadur Woli, Thang Ba Hoang, and Shawn David Pollard @uofmemphis aippub.org/3tZNQil
Congratulations to Dr. Staggers, the first PhD graduate from the spintronic materials group here at @uofmemphis, and a big thanks to the support from the @NSF making this possible!
Curious about artificial spin ice and magnons? Don't miss the upcoming @EmaMagnetism seminar! Tomorrow Thursday 14/12 at 11 CET we'll be hosting Dr. Jack Gartside's seminar ! Check out the video abstract here: magnetism.eu/239-recordings… on zoom and twitch.tv/eumagneticasso…

@moreisdifferent Will be driving about 3 hours into Arkansas from Memphis. Pretty convenient for me.
@ThisisTheMazzi @Shinossaura I'd happily volunteer to be one of the back-up dancers.
@NanoscaleViews @gravity_levity Although it also led to one of the must beautiful experiments in physics (IMO)... I guess eldritch horrors can be beautiful? journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…
@DanielRosenblat @Andercot Go to the column where it shows the temperature (온도 (K)). Regardless of the accuracy (many issues can arise in these measurements giving an anomalous resistivity, see discussion here ), the measurement shown there was at 22 K...
@moreisdifferent Here's some of the RT claims over the last 7-8 years... (non-exhaustive)
Just a bit of context regarding the recent room temperature superconductivity papers (#LK99). As a byproduct of regularly checking arXiv, over the years I've assembled a (non exhaustive) list of preprints about room temp sc. Sometimes you get multiple ones per year.
@spectate_or @moreisdifferent The magnetization measurements don't look anything like a typical superconductor. You'd expect something like below. Why do the FC and ZFC measurements converge (I don't do these measurements, so maybe someone can clarify if the FC = ZFC has happened in other SC systems)?
@MichaelSFuhrer The Au-Ag example is a maybe (?) scandal - there was some odd noise in some of the figures, as pointed out by Brian Skinner. Although I don't think there was much follow-up.
@DanielleFong @Harriet21789542 The 400K was a limitation of the PPMS they used for measurements (qdusa.com/products/ppms.…).
@moreisdifferent @alexhillphd David Mueller from Cornell referenced Langmuir's talk on pathological science, which does seem quite fitting here...
For no particular reason I am thinking of Langmuir’s lecture on “the science of things that aren’t so” and his checklist for pathological science cs.princeton.edu/~ken/Langmuir/…
@moreisdifferent See thewire.in/the-sciences/i… and youtube.com/watch?v=UauT17… (for "levitation")
@moreisdifferent I'd say this is even more reminiscent of the 2018-2019 IISc work. Claimed room temperature, ambient pressure to much press (and skepticism) in 2018 in nanostructured gold-silver composite material with an arXiv preprint, followed it up with video of "levitation," then disappeared
