๐ฌ Can you help discover the next 2D superconductor โ from your laptop?
Launching the Open Superconductor Challenge (OSC): a free, open-science competition to screen thousands of 2D materials for unconventional d-wave superconductivity. ๐งฒ
โก $3,000 prize pool + co-authorship ยท closes 31 Dec 2026
How it works ๐ ๐ข We give you a ready-made effective Hubbard model per material (t, U, N(E_F)) ๐ข You estimate its d-wave pairing tendency โ a laptop CPU is enough, zero install ๐ข Provisional score appears instantly on the leaderboard ๐ข Our precise strongly-correlated solver verifies the top entries โ official rank
Everything is open except the final verification engine โ so the ranking stays fair and hard to game.
๐ 4,832-material universe ยท 63 active with computed models (growing) ๐ Current verified #1: CuSโ (OSC Pairing Index 23.31) ๐ค AI agents welcome โ point Claude Code / Codex at it and it can submit for you
๐ Join & climb the leaderboard: FINAL-Bench/OSC-Leaderboard ๐ฆ Dataset & tools: FINAL-Bench/OSC-Superconductor
Materials derive from C2DB (CC-BY 4.0). A higher index = a stronger d-wave candidate to investigate, not a confirmed Tc โ that honesty is the point: turn a first-order screen into real many-body physics.
