Hydride superconductivity: here to stay

Superconductivity 2025-02-17 v1 Materials Science

Abstract

The field of hydride superconductivity has recently been mired in a controversy that might divert attention from the question of central importance: do hydrides support genuine superconductivity or not? We examine some key papers from the field, and conclude that hydride superconductivity is real.
