China's Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) project has made significant progress at Dalang Town in Dongguan, south China's Guangdong Province, with the equipment power increasing by 20 percent.

The 2021 strategy sessions of the High Energy Physics Branch of the Chinese Physical Society were held in Beijing from October 10 to 12.

According to relevant experts at the meeting, the CSNS project has made a major breakthrough, and there are still many projects under construction, which are expected to become an international leader.

The significant progress was made during the seven-day National Day holiday that ended on Oct 7. Experts said the 20-percent power increase will greatly save users' time.

The CSNS is China's first research facility providing the most intense pulsed neutron beams for scientific research. Spallation neutron source can accelerate protons before smashing them into a target to produce neutrons. The neutrons are then sent to numerous instruments that are used by researchers to study materials. The neutrons act as a "super microscope" to probe the structure of the microscopic world, similar to x-rays.

The CSNS project is the first major national science and technology infrastructure in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. It is of great significance for China to explore frontier studies such as material science and life science.

中國散裂中子源（CSNS）項目在廣東省東莞市大朗鎮取得重大進展，設備功率提高20%。

中國物理學會高能物理分會2021年戰略會議於10月10日至12日在北京召開。

據與會相關專家介紹，CSNS項目取得重大突破，在建項目還有很多，有望成為國際領先。

重大進展是在10月7日結束的為期7天的國慶假期期間進行的。專家表示，20%的電量增加將大大節省用戶的時間。

CSNS是中國第一個為科學研究提供最強脈衝中子束的研究設施。散裂中子源可以在質子撞擊目標之前對其進行加速以產生中子。然後將中子發送到研究人員用來研究材料的眾多儀器中。中子充當“超級顯微鏡”來探測微觀世界的結構，類似於 X 射線。

CSNS項目是粵港澳大灣區首個國家重大科技基礎設施。探索材料科學、生命科學等前沿研究對我國具有重要意義。
