(230727) -- GUANGZHOU, July 27, 2023 (Xinhua) -- An engineer installs high resolution neutron diffractometer equipment at China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) in Dongguan, south China's Guangdong Province, July 18, 2023. In the city of Dongguan lies a world-class sci-tech project -- China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS). Over 1,000 research tasks have been tackled since it started in August 2018. Dubbed as a "super microscope," a spallation neutron source can produce and accelerate protons before smashing them into the target to produce neutrons, and the neutron beams will be directed to hit material samples. Researchers can thus accurately infer the atomic structure of the materials by measuring the distribution of scattered neutrons and their changes in energy and momentum. The CSNS is a national major scientific and technological infrastructure and multi-disciplinary applied research platform, with 20 neutron channels planned and 22 neutron instruments and experimental terminals capable of constr
