Faulty evidence for superconductivity in ac magnetic susceptibility of sulfur hydride under pressure

Sulfur hydride was reported to become superconducting at high pressure and temperature [1]. Posteriorly, Huang and coworkers measured its ac magnetic susceptibility [2], reportedly confirming that finding. According to Semenok and Oganov [3], their work ‘sets a new standard for experimental studies of superconductivity at high pressure’.Instead I argue here that the ac susceptibility measurements of Huang et al.
