We report the observation of spin-polarized superconductivity in Bernal bilayer graphene when doped to a saddle-point van Hove singularity generated by large applied perpendicular electric field. We observe a cascade of electrostatic gate-tuned transitions between electronic phases distinguished by their polarization within the isospin space defined by the combination of the spin and momentum-space valley degrees of freedom... While all of these phases are metallic at zero magnetic field, we observe a transition to a superconducting state at finite $B_\parallel\approx 150$mT applied parallel to the two dimensional sheet. Superconductivity occurs near a symmetry breaking transition, and exists exclusively above the $B_\parallel$-limit expected of a paramagnetic superconductor with the observed $T_C\approx 30$mK, implying a spin-triplet order parameter. read more
