It brings togethe
Recently, the 2023 RoboCup came to an end in Bordeaux, France. Two undergraduate teams from Nankai University performed well in the finals, winning the first prize and the “Best Paper” award (the only one) in the online challenge.The two teams were coached by Li Wenyu, a member of the team headed by Professor Duan Feng of the College of Artificial Intelligence. The “NK Lumos” team composed of six undergraduate students, including Shi Ruochuan, Qiao Yi, Guo Fengrui, Sun Can, Zhao Yinqi and Sun Ji
In the latest piece of research, Professor Hu, Zhenpengs team from Nankai University proposed a new material, namely, bilayer Kagome borophene (BK-boropnene), which exhibits both traditional and higher-order van Hove singularities near the Fermi levelwith a Fermi velocity surpassing even that of graphene. This structure will provide a new platform for researchesin quantum material systems and other fields. The relevant paper was published in Advanced Science, a famous international journal.The K
Professor Wang Yu-Ming from the School of Physics at Nankai University in collaboration with with a postdoctoral researcher (Cui Bo-Yan) and two doctoral students (Huang Yong-Kang and Zhao Xue-Chen), computed for the first time the next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD corrections to the form factors at large hadronic recoil. Both the charm-quark-mass- and the strange-quark-mass-dependent pieces could generate the leading-power contributions to these form factors. This is widely considered as a true t
Recently, a research paper entitled “Genetically engineered mesenchymal stem cells as a nitric oxide reservoir for acute kidney injury therapy” co-authored by Li Zongjin of the School of Medicine of Nankai University and Zhao Qiang of the College of Life Sciences was published in eLife, a world-renowned academic journal. Under this study, a nitric oxide (NO) gas molecule delivery system based on engineered mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was developed for the first time, which achievedthe controll

Accordingtomodern physics, our universe is believed to have originated from a big bang, during which an exactly equal amount of matter and anti-matter was produced. However, various of experimental evidences indicate that the current universe is dominated by matter rather than anti-matter. In order to explain the asymmetry, Sakharov proposed thefamous Three Rules in 1967, pointing out that the baryon number (B) violation plays a key role in resolving this puzzle. To this day, extensive research
