Construction for neutrino experiment starts at Daya Bay

The ground-breaking ceremony for the Daya Reactor Neutrino Experiment,China's largest single project of international collaboration in basic science as well as the biggest one between US and China,was held at Daya Bay Nuclear Power Base in Shenzhen on 13 October,2007. Chaired by CHEN Hesheng, director of the CAS Institute of High Energy Physics(IHEP),the ceremony was attended by high-     

A new model for simulating evolution of human influenza virus

Understanding the evolution of influenza A virus, which poses a global challenge to public health, is of special significance for its control and prevention. Although the genome structure of the virus is seemingly simple, their evolutionary patterns and molecular mechanisms are difficult to reveal.     

Commissioning of a 3,500 ton/year synthetic gasoline facility

退耕还林 40年来森林土壤氮库营养的动态变化研究(英文)

对 1962年以来采集的表层土壤和深层土壤样品进行培养实验,以研究退耕还林 40年来土壤氮的动态变化以及植被恢复对土壤氮库矿质化的影响.供试土样在专门设计的矿质化培养系统中,以温度 30℃、通气并保持土壤湿度的条件下培养 30d,以 2mol LKCl溶液浸提培养土并测定其氮含量.结果表明,土壤矿质氮及全氮含量均在造林的头 2 0年迅速下降,在 2 0年的林木生长过程中,生物吸收积累了土壤中约 80 %-90 %的有效氮,表明耕地中施入的氮对树木早期生长有着重要作用;树龄达 40年时,土壤原有矿质氮的 5 0 %-80 %已返还土壤.这一结果表明,森林地被已成为土壤营养的重要来源,并且森林生态系统提供的这种有机质可成为可持续利用的土壤氮资源.     

上帝的宠儿

有一个人,他不明白什么叫幸运,因此他决定去问上帝。“上帝,什么是幸运？”上帝答：“比如你在回家的路上,不经意捡到一锭金子,这叫幸运,再比如你穿越荒漠,正饥渴难忍时,突然你发现一眼甘泉．这也叫幸运。总之,幸运就是好的运气,你懂了吗？”“我好像懂了,但是……上帝,那么什么才算是最幸运呢？”上帝沉思了一会儿,说：“其实幸运与幸运之间没有什么本质的差别,如果你非要弄个究竟,那么我告诉你,我也不知道,不过你可以去问一问法国人,也许他们会告诉你。” 是的,法国人有资格告诉你什么是最幸运,因为他们赢得了欧洲杯…
