In this study, MgB2 polycrystals were synthesized via the addition of B4C and Dy2O3. X-ray diffraction confirmed that MgB2 was the predominant phase in all the samples. The superconducting properties of the samples were characterized by in-field temperature-dependent resistivity and magnetization me...
