The superconducting properties of [Formula: see text]Mo6S8 [[Formula: see text]] Chevrel phase [[Formula: see text] K] are studied on a sample compacted by spark plasma sintering. Both lower ([Formula: see text] mT) and the upper [[Formula: see text] T] critical magnetic fields are obtained from magnetization and electrical resistivity measurements for the first time. The analysis of the low-temperature electronic specific heat indicates [Formula: see text]Mo6S8 to be a two band superconductor with the energy gaps [Formula: see text] meV (95%) and [Formula: see text] meV (5%). Theoretical DFT calculations reveal a much stronger electron-phonon coupling in the studied Chevrel phase compared to earlier reports. Similar to MgB2, the Fermi surface of studied Chevrel phase is formed by two hole-like and one electron-like bands.
