>Ultra-high-energy cosmic accelerators
我國(guó)發(fā)現(xiàn)最高能量光子

Chinese scientists have detected a dozen ultra-high-energy cosmic accelerators within the Milky Way, a find that could overturn humanity's understanding of the galaxy and help reveal the origin of cosmic rays, which have puzzled scientists for a century. The findings were based on the observations of China's Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory, one of the country's key national science and technology infrastructure facilities, which is under construction in Daocheng, in Southwest China's Sichuan province.
由中國(guó)科學(xué)院高能物理研究所牽頭的中國(guó)高海拔宇宙線觀測(cè)站國(guó)際合作組近日宣布，中國(guó)高海拔宇宙線觀測(cè)站(LHAASO拉索)在銀河系內(nèi)發(fā)現(xiàn)大量超高能宇宙加速器，這一發(fā)現(xiàn)可能顛覆人類對(duì)銀河系的認(rèn)識(shí)，并有助于揭示困擾科學(xué)家一個(gè)世紀(jì)的宇宙射線的起源問(wèn)題。拉索是國(guó)家重大科技基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，位于四川省稻城縣，目前仍在建設(shè)之中。

Scientists led by the Institute of High Energy Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences made the discoveries after an 11-month observation using the completed half of the installation.
科學(xué)家們使用已建成部分進(jìn)行了11個(gè)月的觀測(cè)，得出了這一重大發(fā)現(xiàn)。

One photon with an energy of 1.4 PeV was detected, the highest value ever observed by humans.
科學(xué)家們還記錄到1.4拍電子伏的伽馬光子(拍=千萬(wàn)億)，這是人類觀測(cè)到的最高能量光子。

The new discoveries were published in Nature on Monday.
