Global nuclear power generation hits record high in 2025, with net growth mainly driven by China
According to the latest release of the Statistical Review of World Energy, global nuclear power generation reached 2,845 TWh in 2025, an increase of approximately 30 TWh from 2024, up 1.3% year-on-year, setting a new record. Among this, China's nuclear power generation increased by more than 34 TWh, becoming the primary source of net global nuclear growth. This record needs to be viewed within a longer timeframe. The previous peak in global nuclear power generation occurred in 2006, when it reached 2,803 TWh. In other words, although 2025 global nuclear power generation has surpassed the previous peak, the cumulative increase over 19 years is only about 1.5%, which does not indicate rapid expansion on a global scale. Over the past decade, global nuclear power generation has risen from 2015...

On August 3, Deepnoid announced the signing of a supply contract for M4CXR with Pusan National University Hospital. M4CXR is a generative AI-based preliminary report generation solution for chest X-rays that generates preliminary reports during chest X-ray examinations to assist medical staff in image interpretation. This is the first supply agreement signed after M4CXR received approval from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety of South Korea for market release as a digital medical device. According to the introduction, the system is expected to improve the efficiency of chest X-ray reading and provide clinical support for the early detection of lung diseases and suspected cancerous lesions. This collaboration is also part of the AI clinical system support project for regional responsible medical institutions under the Ministry of Health and Welfare of South Korea...

Türkiye will participate in the International Nuclear Science Olympiad (INSO-2026) as a competing country for the first time. The competition is scheduled to take place from August 2 to 9 in Jeddah, a city on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia. According to Türkiye's Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, the high school students representing Türkiye have completed their final preparations in the capital Ankara. The participating students come from Istanbul Private Bahçeşehir Science High School, who were selected through a nationwide competition, standing out from 30 schools to earn the right to represent Türkiye. During the preparation period, students received training in atomic structure, atomic nucleus, radiation, fission, fusion, environmental radioactivity, radiation risks and safety, as well as nuclear energy and...

Recently, the research team at the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made new progress in quantum computing studies of first-principles nuclear structure for multi-fermion systems. The team developed a universal quantum-classical hybrid computing framework capable of calculating Green's functions and spectral functions of nuclear many-body systems. The relevant results were published as a Letter in Physical Review C. First-principles Hamiltonian many-body calculations are a core approach for revealing the laws of strongly correlated quantum systems, widely applied in fields such as quantum chemistry and nuclear physics. However, the Hilbert space of such problems grows exponentially with particle number, posing insurmountable computational resource challenges on classical computers...

Water-based nanofluidic ionic devices offer unique advantages in frontier fields such as brain-computer interfaces and biocompatible computing. Recently, the research team from the State Key Laboratory of Heavy Ion Science and Technology at the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Lanzhou University, Hebei University of Geosciences, and other partners, successfully achieved stable ionic memristive effects in single-ion-track nanochannels. Through precise regulation, they realized programmable transitions in memristive and synaptic functions, providing a new technological pathway for the development of next-generation low-power neuromorphic computing hardware. The related results were published in the journal *Small* on July 22. Leveraging the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL), the researchers...

Recently, the research team from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators, successfully produced and identified the rare isotope hafnium-153 using the High-Intensity Heavy-Ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF). This is the first physics result obtained during the commissioning of HIAF, demonstrating that China's new-generation high-intensity heavy-ion research facility is capable of exploring unknown nuclides and expanding the nuclear chart. It marks the official commencement of HIAF's scientific discovery journey. The result was published as a short communication in *Science Bulletin*. Figure: Position of hafnium-153 on the nuclear chart; the blue line indicates the boundary of known nuclides. Image | Hu Houyu, Li Hongfu. Atomic nuclei are composed of protons and neutrons, and different combinations of proton and neutron numbers form the diverse world of nuclides. Exploring unknown nuclides and investigating the boundaries of nuclear existence are important frontiers in nuclear physics. Hafnium-153 is located in the neutron-deficient heavy-mass region and is an important subject for studying the evolution of nuclear structure and the limits of nuclear stability. It had not been reported prior to this experiment. The discovery and precise measurement of this nuclide will help test nuclear theory models and deepen our understanding of nuclear structure regularities.
