Abstract
A high-throughput computational method is used to predict 39 new superconductors in the Ti-based M

AX phases, and the best candidates are then studied in more detail using density functional theory electron–phonon coupling calculations. The detailed calculations agree with the simple predictions, and Ti

AlX (X: B, C and N) materials are predicted to have higher values of

AX phases. The electronic states at the Fermi level are dominated by the Ti 3d states. The choice of X (X: B, C and N) has a significant impact on the electronic density of states but not on the phonon characteristics. The electron–phonon coupling parameter for Ti
