Abstract
Nature Communications is publishing an editorial expression of concern on the article “Ballistic superconductivity in semiconductor nanowires”, by H. Zhang et al. On 09 December 2021, the Editorial Staff was alerted by Vincent Mourik and two other researchers to potential problems in the manner in which raw data have been selected, processed and analysed. In response to these concerns, Nature Communications initiated an investigation by contacting the corresponding authors of the article and consulting with two independent experts. The investigation involved technical scrutiny of the additional analyses provided by the corresponding authors, including supplementary data from the repository https://zenodo.org/records/6851435. Based on the evidence presented, the Reviewers endorsed the publication of the correction note appended below. Readers are urged to take this information into consideration when interpreting the data presented in this article. Kun Zuo and Vincent Mourik also informed the editorial staff that they wished to be removed from authorship because in their opinion, the correction does not address the concerns with respect to the data and they do not endorse the validity of the claims and conclusions of the article. The author list in both the PDF and HTML has now been rectified. All authors,with the exception ofKenjiWatanabe and Takashi Taniguchi, disagreewith the publication of this Editorial Expression of Concern.
