Inner Dome Concrete Pouring of Zhangzhou Nuclear Power Unit 3 Completed

Inner Dome Concrete Pouring of Zhangzhou Nuclear Power Unit 3 Completed

On September 30, as the last batch of concrete was successfully poured into the formwork, China Nuclear Industry 24 Construction Co., Ltd. successfully completed the concrete pouring of the inner dome of the reactor building of the Hualong One Zhangzhou Nuclear Power Unit 3. The achievement of this key milestone marks the full completion of the civil construction of the inner containment for this unit, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent prestressing construction of the containment and the installation of core nuclear equipment. As an important safety barrier of the Hualong One independent third-generation nuclear power technology, the inner dome is located at the top of the nuclear island, and its core function is to ensure the integrity and absolute leak-tightness of the reactor building and prevent the leakage of radioactive substances. Faced with nuclear construction technical challenges such as the complex curved surface structure of the dome and the high difficulty of high-altitude operations, the Zhangzhou Nuclear Power Project Department...

The Fully Superconducting Tokamak EAST Marks 20 Years of Operation: From a 3-Second First Cry to Thousand-Second Steady State, China's "Artificial Sun" Opens a Leap Toward Fusion Engineering

2026-09-28

On September 28, 2006, the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), independently designed and developed by the Institute of Plasma Physics (ASIPP) under the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, successfully achieved its first plasma discharge on Hefei Science Island, with a current of 200 kA and a duration of nearly 3 seconds. This historic moment marked the official completion and operation of the world's first fully superconducting non-circular cross-section nuclear fusion experimental device, propelling China into the club of fully superconducting tokamak technology ahead of others. Over the past two decades, this artificial sun has completed more than 160,000 physical discharge experiments...

ENN's "Xuanlong-50U" Device Successfully Achieves Hydrogen-Boron Fusion Reaction

2026-09-28

In late September 2026, ENN achieved a major breakthrough in the commercialization of hydrogen-boron fusion: the Xuanlong-50U device achieved a hydrogen-boron fusion reaction. This is the first time a global commercial fusion company has achieved a hydrogen-boron fusion reaction on its own device, and also the first time China's magnetic confinement fusion device has achieved a clean neutron-free fusion reaction with advanced fuels (hydrogen-boron, deuterium-helium-3). Hydrogen-boron fusion has commercialization advantages such as being neutron-free, having abundant and easily accessible fuel, and low cost. Its product is helium (α particles), but compared with deuterium-tritium fusion, it requires higher reaction temperature and triple product, and more demanding reaction conditions. In this experiment, the ENN fusion team, through the synergy of high-energy neutral beam injection and radio-frequency waves, greatly increased the non-thermal equilibrium fast proton fraction at the first resonance peak of the hydrogen-boron reaction...

Chest CT Can Measure Bone Density and Warn of Brain Aging Risk: Latest Research Reveals Link Between Skeletal and Cognitive Decline

Chest computed tomography (CT), routinely used to screen for lung lesions, may hold important clues for assessing brain health. A research team from Johns Hopkins University in the United States explored approaches to using existing chest imaging to assess bone health and link it to brain aging, with the related findings published in September 2026 in the authoritative journal Radiology. The study showed that subjects with lower thoracic vertebral bone density experienced faster cognitive decline during subsequent follow-up, and specific white matter microstructural changes also showed associated degeneration. Chest CT is widely used in lung cancer screening and pulmonary nodule follow-up...
