Periodic Trends and a Physics-Based Multistage Search for High-$T_c$ Hydride Superconductors
Hydrogen-rich materials under pressure are candidates for conventional phonon-mediated superconductivity, but first-principles electron--phonon-coupling (EPC) calculations are computationally demanding. We develop an interpretable multistage workflow for prioritizing binary hydride superconductors before full EPC calcu...
