The "13th Five-Year" Science and Education Infrastructure Cosmic Ray Physics Research and Detection Technology Platform Project Passed Acceptance
On July 29, 2026, the Finance Bureau of the Chinese Academy of Sciences organized the acceptance meeting for the Cosmic Ray Physics Research and Detection Technology Platform Project (hereinafter referred to as the Research Platform). The meeting was chaired by Wei Zichao, Director of the Investment and Infrastructure Projects Division of the Academy. Tan Zhouliang, Vice President and Member of the Party Leadership Group of the Chengdu Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Liu Congzhan, Deputy Director of the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, delivered speeches respectively. Academician Cao Zhen, Project Manager of the Research Platform, gave an overall introduction to the project construction, and Researcher Zhang Shoushan of the project team presented a summary report on the project construction. Subsequently, the acceptance expert group inspected the construction and installation works on site, verified the procurement, installation, and operation of project equipment, and verified the completion of project investment...

LHAASO "Sees" for the First Time How Black Holes Produce the Highest-Energy Particles in the Universe
How do black holes accelerate particles to the highest energies in the universe? The latest research provides the answer. On July 31, it was learned from the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences that the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO, "Lasso"), a major national scientific and technological infrastructure, has for the first time clearly observed the process by which a black hole, while devouring material from its companion star, regularly produces the highest-energy particles in the universe like a metronome, and has identified the first PeV gamma-ray variable source. The related research results were published in the *National Science Review*. Cygnus X-3 is a binary system located in the constellation Cygnus, consisting of a black hole and a massive companion star. The gravitational pull there is extremely strong, and the black hole frantically accretes the stellar wind blown off by its companion. LHAASO detected...
