researchers have discovered the deepest,most extensive chemosynthesis-based communities of organisms during an expedition to the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench and the western Aleutian Trench,according to a recent research article published in Nature.

Recently, the Free-Electron Laser (FEL) team at the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute (SARI), Chinese Academy of Sciences experimentally demonstrated their independently proposed concept of Direct-Amplification Enabled Harmonic Generation Free-Electron Laser (DEHG-FEL) for the first time, and successfully achieved its lasing and stable operation. This marks a key milestone toward realizing X-ray FEL sources operating at megahertz (MHz) repetition rates. The results were published in Physical Review Letters and were highlighted as an Editors’ Suggestion.

All-polymer solar cells (APSCs) possess excellent material flexibility, solution processability, and thermal stability, offering great potential for lightweight and large-area printed applications in wearable and stretchable devices. A critical factor in achieving high performance is the optimization of active layer morphology, especially the regulation of crystallization and phase separation of the donor. However, the real-time morphological evolution during post-treatment processes such as solvent vapor annealing (SVA) has remained unclear.

Researchers at the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have recently confirmed that the fully stripped heavy ion-atom collision is an effective way to produce heavy hollow atoms in high yield

Recognizing these numbers helps scientists better understand the structure of nuclei.

A research team led by Prof. HUANG Chengdong from the University of Science and Technology of China, users of the Steady High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF), has uncovered a previously unknown mechanism by which intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) remotely regulate protein function.

Researchers from the Shenguang II team at the Joint Laboratory for High Power Laser Physics, Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, have developed a novel machine learning-based technique for crystal self-alignment in high-power laser facilities. This method can automatically search for and align the crystal's reflected spot in approximately 10 minutes, significantly enhancing alignment efficiency.

Researchers from IMP and their colaborators have measured absolute rate coeficients for dielectronic recombination of sodium-like iron lons, providing a benchmark data set for astrophysical modeling.

The BESIII Collaboration recently reported “Observation of charmonium hc radiative decays to multiple light hadrons and the tensor state f2 (1270)”.

Fast radio burst (FRB) is a mysterious radio burst that lasts only a few milliseconds, the study of its origin is a hot topic in astrophysics. The research team made observations with FAST reveals the new physics of millisecond radio bursts in the universe. Two research results on FRB detection were published in the international scientific journal Nature in succession. This is the first time that a completely independent achievement based on the data of China's ground-based telescopes were published on this top journal.
