Abstract

Reference [1] presents evidence for magnetic field screening and “subtle” evidence for magnetic field expulsion in hydrides under high pressure, which is argued to support the claim that these materials are high temperature superconductors. We point out here that data presented in different figures of Ref. [1] are inconsistent (i) with one another, (ii) with other work by the same authors on the same samples [2, 3], and (iii) with the expected behavior of standard superconductors. This suggests that these magnetic phenomena reported for these materials are not associated with superconductivity, undermining the claim that these materials are high temperature superconductors.
