origin wukong a hit with global users
as of jan. 15, origin wukong, the china-developed third-generation superconducting quantum computer, had completed over 33,800 quantum computing tasks for global users since it became operational on jan. 6.
new strategy to improve solar cell performance
researchers from kunming university of science and technology have proposed a new strategy to significantly improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency and lifetime of the battery, the university said on jan. 14.
formation process of primitive star clusters revealed
an international team led by peking university has unveiled their findings on the formation process of high-mass protostellar clusters, by using large radio telescopes to undertake high-definition observations. the results were recently published in concerned academic journals.
ultra-low temperature achieved in supersolid candidate
chinese scientists have achieved ultra-low temperature refrigeration — below minus 273℃ — in a recently synthesized supersolid candidate, without the use of liquid helium, a conventional material that has long been used in ultra-low temperature refrigeration, according to a paper recently published in nature.
