Finding viable superconducting materials is of interest to the physics community as the superconductors are the playground to manifest many appealing quantum phenomena. This work exemplifies an end-to-end materials discovery towards novel MgB2-like superconductors, starting from the data-driven compound screening all the way to the experimental materialization. In addition to the known superconducting compounds, CaB2 (Tc = 9.4 ~ 28.6 K), SrGa2 (Tc = 0.1 ~ 2.4 K), BaGa2 (Tc = 0.3 ~ 3.3 K), BaAu2 (Tc = 0.0 ~ 0.5 K), and LaCu2 (Tc = 0.1 ~ 2.2 K) are newly discovered, out of ~182,000 starting structures, to be the most promising superconducting compounds that share similar atomic structures with MgB2. Moreover, BaGa2 is experimentally synthesized and measured to confirm that the compound is a BCS superconductor with Tc = 0.36 K, in good agreement with our theoretical predictions. This work provides a "once and for all" study for the MgB2-like superconductors and showcases that it is feasible to discover new materials via a data-driven approach.
