Anomalously high value of Coulomb pseudopotential for the $\rm H_{5}S_{2}$ superconductor

The ${\rm H_{5}S_{2}}$ and ${\rm H_{2}S}$ compounds are the two candidates for the low-temperature phase of compressed sulfur-hydrogen system. We have shown that the value of Coulomb pseudopotential ($μ^{\star}$) for ${\rm H_{5}S_{2}}$ ($\left[T_{C}\right]_{\rm exp}=36$~K and $p=112$~GPa) is anomalously high. The numerical results give the limitation from below to $μ^{\star}$ that is equal to $0.402$ ($μ^{\star}=0.589$, if we consider the first order vertex corrections to the electron-phonon interaction). Presented data mean that the properties of superconducting phase in the ${\rm H_{5}S_{2}}$ compound can be understood within the classical framework of Eliashberg formalism only at the phenomenological level ($μ^{\star}$ is the parameter of matching the theory to the experimental data). On the other hand, in the case of ${\rm H_{2}S}$ it is not necessary to take high value of Coulomb pseudopotential to reproduce the experimental critical temperature relatively well ($μ^{\star}=0.15$). In our opinion, ${\rm H_{2}S}$ is mainly responsible for the observed superconductivity state in the sulfur-hydrogen system at low temperature.
