National Standard Compiled by CNNC Mining and Metallurgy Technology Successfully Released

Recently, the national standard "Methods of Analysis of Uranium Ore Concentrate - Part 1: Determination of Uranium - Ferrous Sulfate Reduction - Potassium Dichromate Titration Method" (GB/T 11848.1-2026), compiled by CNNC Mining and Metallurgy Technology Group Co., Ltd. (Beijing Research Institute of Chemical Engineering and Metallurgy, CNNC), was officially released. With this, all 15 national standard methods for "Methods of Analysis of Uranium Ore Concentrate" (GB/T 11848.2-11848.16, implemented in May 2026) led by our company have been fully released. Uranium ore concentrate is an important intermediate product in the nuclear fuel cycle, with its core value lying in the uranium it contains. The determination of uranium content is a crucial link throughout the entire industrial chain from ore to nuclear fuel. This is not merely a simple compositional analysis, but a core step in ensuring economic benefits, product compliance, process safety, and conformity with international regulations. The control of impurity elements plays an important role in the uranium purification and conversion process. The determination of impurity elements is primarily aimed at meeting product control and quality assurance requirements, ensuring downstream process safety, and supporting nuclear safeguards and forensic traceability. The new series of analytical methods is better adapted to modern production processes and detection techniques.

Montpellier, France, tests control of tiger mosquitoes by releasing 200,000 X-ray-sterilized males weekly

Montpellier, France, is testing a mosquito control strategy that does not rely on chemical insecticides by releasing X-ray-sterilized sterile male tiger mosquitoes, in response to the spread of tiger mosquitoes and the associated disease transmission risks. The trial has been underway since 2025 in the Malbosc residential area of Montpellier. This area is suitable for tiger mosquito breeding, and the trial team releases sterile male tiger mosquitoes at approximately 30 release points twice a week, about 100,000 per release, equivalent to roughly 200,000 per week across an area of about 50 hectares. The method is based on the sterile insect technique. Since only female mosquitoes bite and suck blood and may transmit viruses, and females typically mate only once in their lifetime, researchers release male mosquitoes that have lost their reproductive capacity after X-ray treatment into the wild to mate with wild females. The eggs subsequently laid by females fail to fertilize normally, thereby reducing the next generation of mosquito populations.

New Progress in First-Principles Quantum Computing for Nuclear Structure

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...
