Robust Magnetism Against Pressure in Non-Superconducting Samples Prepared from Lutetium Foil and H2/N2 Gas Mixture

We report the observation of a magnetic transition at the temperature about 56 K, through the high-pressure heat capacity and magnetic susceptibility measurements on the samples that have been claimed to be a nearroom-temperature superconductor [Dasenbrock-Gammon et al. Nature 615, 244(2023)]. Our results show that this magnetic phase is robust against pressure up to 4.3 GPa, which covers the critical pressure of boosting the claimed superconductivity.
