May 28, 2019 at 6:01 comment added Asaf Karagila @Paul: Models with atoms can be seen as models of ZF-Foundation, and the atoms are generators for the ill-founded part (using, quite fittingly Quine atoms for the atoms). In your work with Saharon you make a model where the pure sets, or the well-founded part, satisfies ZFC, and you cannot extend the model with atoms to a model of ZFC-Foundation without collapsing cardinals, which is the same as adding well-founded sets (sets of ordinals).
May 24, 2019 at 17:02 comment added Paul Larson I have seen this, but I haven't figured out the relationship between the question and our paper. There is some overlap between the remarks in Section 4 of our paper and some relatively recent work of @Joel (but I just looked and didn't find the related work on Joel's site).

May 15, 2018 at 14:07 comment added Asaf Karagila There is a preprint available on Paul's website. I don't like the approach Shelah takes to models with atoms, so I found it very confusing to try and understand what he actually did there. I understand the idea, but if I ever decide that I want to find out the exact details, I would probably just sit and try to come up with the proof myself. There's a good chance Paul will see this question, and then he might be able to shed some light on the topic.
May 15, 2018 at 14:03 comment added Joel David Hamkins Great! Could you explain the construction a little more fully? And do you have a reference? My intended extension concept was end-extension with no new well-founded sets. So in particular, collapsing (well-founded) cardinals would not be allowed.
