US PPPL Reconstructs 70-Year-Old Lawson Criterion, Proposes New Fusion Ignition Pathway of "Heat First, Fuel Later"
The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), under the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), released its latest findings on October 5. Laboratory physicists have reconstructed the classic Lawson criterion that has been in use for over 70 years and published the results in Physical Review Letters. The research team integrated four real-world physics effects that were previously treated separately into a unified model, mapping out an entirely new fusion ignition topography. The study shows that adopting a pathway of first heating the plasma and then increasing fuel density can achieve the ignition conditions for self-sustaining burn with far less energy consumption than traditional pathways. For over 70 years, the nuclear fusion field has relied on...

Nearly 40 years after the 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident, a research team from Leibniz University Hannover and Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) in Germany has completed the world's first synchrotron radiation X-ray-based precision crystal phase analysis of 6 micron-sized highly radioactive fragments (commonly known in the industry as Hot Particles) ejected from the destroyed reactor. The related breakthrough research findings have been officially published in the top-tier journal in environmental and radioecology, the Journal of Hazardous Materials.

The Department of Nuclear Medicine at Peking University First Hospital has recently officially received the Theranostics Advanced-L2 certification issued by EARL (EANM Research Ltd.), an affiliate of the European Association of Nuclear Medicine, becoming one of the few nuclear medicine theranostics centers in China to obtain this high-level certification. The certification audit standards are rigorous, covering comprehensive dimensions including PET/CT quantitative accuracy, therapy center operations, patient safety management, and clinical competency. Passing the certification means that the department's quantitative imaging and targeted therapy data meet internationally mutually recognized standards and can achieve high-level alignment with advanced nuclear medicine centers in Europe and the United States. During the certification review, EANM President-Elect Professor Felix M. Mottaghy and Ms. Iva...

A latest phase 3 randomized controlled clinical study announced at the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) annual meeting shows that for patients with localized prostate cancer (PCa), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) demonstrates excellent clinical application potential. Follow-up data show that SBRT is comparable to traditional radical prostatectomy in 8-year biochemical or clinical failure-free rates, and the incidence of urinary incontinence at 5 years after treatment is significantly reduced by nearly 40%. This phase 3 multicenter clinical trial...

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...

At the early hours of September 16, with the smooth takeoff of the first departing flight MF8487, Terminal 2 of the Fuzhou Changle International Airport Phase II Expansion Project was officially put into commercial operation, marking that Fuzhou Airport has officially entered the era of dual-terminal and dual-runway operations. Relying on the nuclear technology commercialization platform of Tsinghua University, the smart civil aviation security inspection system and nearly 300 sets of full-category security inspection hardware equipment customized and developed by Nuctech for the terminal were simultaneously put into operation, fully supporting the efficient and secure flow of 36 million passenger trips per year at Terminal 2. This deployment covers all aviation security inspection nodes, including passenger carry-on baggage, checked baggage and personal inspection. Nuctech has built...

On September 29, the Chinese Academy of Sciences held a press conference in Beijing, announcing the official launch of the Scientific Frontier Extreme Breakthrough Program and unveiling the first batch of launched projects. The program is based on the advantages of national major science and technology infrastructure clusters and a comprehensive disciplinary institutional framework, launching a systematic scientific expedition in the directions of the extremely macroscopic, extremely microscopic, extreme conditions, and extreme comprehensive interdisciplinarity (the "four extremes"). Zhou Qi, Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, stated that the program aims to break the traditional single-point breakthrough model through the open and combined use of major science and technology infrastructure and the deep empowerment of artificial intelligence (AI for Science), building a systematic research paradigm for tackling key problems in the context of great power competition. In the released layout of the "four extremes" breakthrough tasks, the first...
