What changed
Reported superconducting behaviour in a barium–lanthanum–copper oxide system, opening the cuprate research program.
Scientific scope
Reported superconducting behaviour in a barium–lanthanum–copper oxide system, opening the cuprate research program. Scope limitation: High temperature is relative to earlier superconductors. This is not room-temperature superconductivity or a complete theory of cuprates.
Evidence
Assessment uses the catalogue-linked source evidence for the stated contribution. High temperature is relative to earlier superconductors. This is not room-temperature superconductivity or a complete theory of cuprates.
