Abstract
Bipolaronic superconductivity induced by bond phonons survives even in the presence of very strong long-ranged Coulomb repulsion leading to transition temperatures in line with values found in 3D materials at low densities, providing a robust way to obtain superconductivity in the low-density limit.
