Big Science Facilities

Beijing attaches great importance to the layout of big science facilities, and is currently operating nine facilities, including electron-positron collider, HI-13 tandem accelerator, and engaged in the construction of ten facilities, such as the synergistic extreme condition user facility, earth system science numerical simulator facility, and high energy phonon source, providing essential fundamental scientific infrastructure services for Beijing to take the lead in various international R&D communication and exchanges.
SECUF project refers to the large-scale scientific experimental facility composed of a series of supporting cluster equipment, such as low temperature, high pressure, strong magnetic field and ultrafast light field facilities, including the extreme experimental conditions generation system, sample characterization and measurement system under extreme conditions, as well as the support system for the development, upgrade, maintenance and operation of the above systems.
The national major scientific and technological infrastructure of "Multi-modal Cross-scale Biomedical Imaging" will be constructed in an unprecedented way by integrating the imaging forms of light, sound, electricity, magnetism, radionuclide and electron, providing the ability to study life science issues across ten space and time scales from angstroms to meters and from microseconds to hours, and accurately describing the panoramic picture of the basic principles of life activities and the pathogenesis of diseases, so as to provide a long-term and reliable strategic support for improving the level of life science and medical research.
The Ground-based Integrated Monitoring Network for Space Environment is one of the ten priority projects in the 13th Five-Year Plan for National Major Science and Technology Infrastructure Construction. The project utilizes the 31 comprehensive observation stations along 100°E and 120°E and 40°N and 30°N to form "two vertical and two horizontal" ground-based monitoring network covering China. Comprehensively use multiple means of detection, including the radio, geomagnetism, optics and sounding rockets, to have the capabilities of network monitoring over the Ionosphere, middle and upper atmosphere, geomagnetism within China ("three-network"). Build large-scale and internationally advanced monitoring equipment in four key regions, including the polar region with high altitude, the northern region with middle altitude, Hainan region with low altitude and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, to carry out detailed "microscopic" exploration of the space environment ("four-focus"). Construct a series of advanced sun-interplanetary monitoring equipment to form the monitoring capability of the whole Sun-Earth space chain ("one-chain").
Earth System Numerical Simulation Facility will be built into the first dedicated earth system numerical simulation facility with proprietary intellectual property rights, with the core being the numerical simulation software in various circles of the earth system, matched software and hardware indexes, and the scale and comprehensive technology topping the world.
