Scientists from the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with their collaborators, have conducted a random multipolar driving experiment on a large, two-dimensional superconducting quantum processor, Chuang-tzu 2.0. During the experiment, they observed a long-lived prethermal regime where the system temporarily avoided full thermalization.
While paleontologists have uncovered dozens of such Cambrian soft-bodied fossil sites—including China's early Cambrian Chengjiang biota in Yunnan and Canada's middle Cambrian Burgess Shale biota, the most famous examples of their kind—no equivalent top-tier soft-bodied fossil deposit had ever been found from the critical post-Sinsk Event time interval. That changed over the past five years, however, with the dis...
Scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have made tremendous achievements in the fourth quarter of 2025.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) announced today the election of 73 new Members. The election brings the total number of CAS Members to 908. CAS also announced the election of 27 new Foreign Members from 15 countries. This brings the total number of CAS Foreign Members to 173.
On March 2, 2022, the Chinese Academy of Sciences released its strategic action plan to support scientific and technological efforts toward China's carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals.
A research team led by Prof. LI Bing from the Institute of Metal Research, together with collaborators, has overcome a longstanding bottleneck in refrigeration technology. Their findings introduce a novel cooling method based on the "dissolution barocaloric effect," which offers a promising zero-carbon alternative to traditional refrigeration.
