Scientists from the Institute of Metal Research have proposed a new deep correlation between the spin splitting torque and the Fermi surface geometry, achieving a quantum limit of 100% in a system with a flat Fermi surface.
A new study led by Dr. JIANG Yi from the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed the first clear evidence that visual awareness acts as a "conductor" that refines the speed, precision, and neural coordination of attentional rhythmic sampling.
Researchers from Yunnan University, the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan have unveiled new insights into the fragmentation mechanisms of high-mass star-forming regions.
A research team from the Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory has developed an interpretable artificial intelligence (AI) framework named Convolutional Kolmogorov–Arnold Network (CKAN), which sheds new light on the properties of dark matter at galaxy-cluster scales.
Imagine controlling a power wheelchair or sending a robotic dog to pick up a parcel just by thinking about it. What once sounded like science fiction is now becoming a reality in China. A major breakthrough in invasive brain-computer interface technology helps paralyzed patients better interact with the world.
Chinese scientists have announced a series of major breakthroughs in developing "precision-designed" seeds that can increase crop yields while reducing fertilizer use and enhancing disease resistance, marking a significant advance for food security and sustainable agriculture. At a press conference held on Monday, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) unveiled the scientific achievements of its strategic priority research program, "Precision Seed Design and Breeding." Launched in November 2019, this flagship initiative has brought together experts from over 30 institutions to address pressing challenges in agriculture, including excessive fertilizer use, frequent crop diseases, and limited arable land.
A newly published study in the scientific journal Science Advances unveils the deep-time processes responsible for the exceptional plant diversity characterizing the world's mountain regions. While the richness of alpine flora is well-documented, this research, spearheaded by scientists from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, offers a comprehensive analysis of how geological forces and climate change have shaped this biodiversity over millions of years.
Chinese researchers have recently revealed how surface heat sources in urban clusters contribute to extreme heat events, according to the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources (NIEER) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The study unveiled the changing characteristics of surface heat sources and their relationship with compound high-temperature events, highlighting the importance of surface energy analysis in understanding urban climate change.
