The Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Spanish Consortium for the Construction, Equipping and Exploitation of the Synchrotron Light Source (CELLS) signed a cooperation agreement on July 26, 2025 in Beijing. This collaboration aims to advance the development of synchrotron science and technology by leveraging the expertise and facilities of both parties, defining the specific collaborative activities and programs between IHEP and CELLS. It will focus on three main areas: accelerator technology, experimental beamline technology, and scientific cooperation.

In a new study, researchers have completed China's first shipborne ozone-sounding campaign in the South China Sea, yielding high-resolution data that addresses a gap in understanding oceanic ozone dynamics.
Researchers from the South China Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have discovered human activities are key to kickstarting, speeding saltmarsh succession in South China Sea coral islands.
In a landmark advance for legume genomics, researchers from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology have produced the first gap-free, telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genome assemblies for two model Medicago species. The study provides an unprecedented view into the structure and evolution of plant centromeres, offering a valuable reference for legume functional genomics and precision breeding.
An international team of astronomers has uncovered for the first time the coexistence of dual fragmentation modes and multi-scale dynamic material accretion within a "hub-filament system" (HFS) molecular cloud.
China's decade-long fishing ban has been effective in improving the aquatic biodiversity along the Yangtze River. Aquatic biodiversity in the Yangtze River basin has been recovering following the fishing ban. From 2021 to 2024, 344 native fish species were monitored in the basin, an increase of 36 species compared with the 2017-2020 period that preceded the fishing ban.
A new study by Chinese scientists on lunar samples collected by the Chang'e-6 mission from the far side of the moon has unveiled a startling discovery about the lunar mantle's reduced state. This finding not only provides new insights into the moon's internal composition and evolution but also highlights a significant difference between the near and far sides of the moon.
China's success in finless porpoise ex-situ conservation has reversed international skepticism. This innovation stands as the world's first successful case of small cetacean ex-situ conservation, offering Chinese wisdom and a Chinese model for global conservation efforts.
More than 100 experts from China and around the world on Thursday gathered in Kashgar, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, for a two-day conference to address one of today's most pressing environmental challenges: biodiversity loss in arid and semi-arid ecosystems.
