Scientists find a rule to predict new superconducting metal hydrides
(PHYSorg.com Physics)

The search for coveted high-temperature superconductors is going to get easier with a new `law within a law` discovered by Skoltech and MIPT researchers and their colleagues, who figured out a link between an element`s position in the Periodic Table and its potential to form a high-temperature superconducting hydride. The new paper is published in the journal Current Opinion in Solid State & Materials Science. The research was supported by the Russian Science Foundation.
