Abstract
We report the results of resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements in ${\mathrm{La}}_{2\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{Sr}}_{\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$ for x\ensuremath{\le}0.3. The x=0.2 sample shows a superconducting transition at 36.2 K with a width of 1.4 K. The associated dc diamagnetic susceptibility (Meissner effect) is a large fraction (60%--70%) of the ideal value. We estimate the density of states from critical-field and resistivity data and suggest, by analogy to ${\mathrm{BaPb}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{Bi}}_{\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{O}}_{3}$, that conventional phonon-mediated superconductivity can account for the high ${\mathrm{T}}_{\mathrm{c}}$ in this class of materials.
