The mantle’s compositional structure reflects the thermochemical evolution of Earth. Yet, it has long been debated whether any radial compositional layering is maintained within the mantle, and if and how this would affect the scale of mantle convection.

A major issue in the study of turbulence is to find its putatively universal small-scale properties. Most existing theories of turbulence based on phenomenology and mathematical analysis largely focus on the velocity structure functions, as their scaling laws can characterize the dynamics of energy cascade.

Liu Leo LIU, Associate Professor of the Department of Chemistry at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), recently won the Chinese Chemical Society (CCS) Young Chemist Award (2022) and the CCS Jingqing Award for Rising Star (2022).

From May 18 to 21, 2023, the 8th Innovation Cup National Geophysical Knowledge Competition for College Students took place at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in Hefei, China.

In recent years, exceptional degeneracies have attracted a great deal of interest. The most studied (and simplest) ones are isolated exceptional points.

Professor Chuang-Chaung Li’s research group from the Department of Chemistry at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) recently published a review summarizing the development of synthesis toward Taxol from 1994 to 2022, including the evolution of synthetic strategy for accessing this complex molecular scaffold and key lessons learned from such endeavors.
