【文/观察者网 心智研究所】 2025年10月29日，在北京怀柔科学城，国家重大科技基础设施建设项目——高能同步辐射光源 （HEPS）顺利通过了工艺验收。这座世界上设计亮度最高的第四代同步辐射光源，如同我国探索微观 世界的"巨型X光机"和"大国重器"，预计将在今年年底正式开启试运行。 从空中俯瞰，这座宏大的装置形似一个超级放大镜，其建成标志着我国同步辐射光源实现了代际跨越， 将为解决国家重大需求和前沿科学问题提供强大的技术支撑。 照亮微观世界的"巨型X光机" 要理解HEPS的强大，必须首先明确它所发出的光线及其特性。 HEPS发出的光是肉眼看不见的X光，即X射线，它是一种波长极短的电磁波，波长介于0.01到100埃之 间。由于物质微观结构中原子和分子之间的距离，大约在1到10埃的范围，恰好落在了X射线的波长 内，因此，X射线通过与物质发生散射、衍射和吸收等作用，能够传递极其丰富的微观结构信息，使其 成为探测物质微观结构的理想探针。HEPS的巨型X光机能让科学家们比以往任何时候都更细致地观察 物质的微观世界。 HEPS产生X光的方式被称为"同步辐射"，其原理可以形象地理解为雨中转动的雨伞：接近光速运动的 带电粒 ...

Stellantis公司表示，发生火灾事故的车辆电池由三星SDI（006400.KS）生产。Stellantis和三星SDI已调 查确定，今年早些时候发生的一起车辆起火事故就是由于车辆电池缺陷导致的，这一状况与2024年召回 的15.4万辆插电式混合动力Jeep报告的事故原因相同，当时有两起车辆起火报告。 此次Stellantis启动车辆召回后，美国国家公路交通安全管理局（NHTSA）表示，2023年和2024年召回 修复的车辆，其电池系统需要再次检修。三星SDI尚未就该要求做出回应。 据路透社、美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）等多家外媒报道，Stellantis汽车公司因电池故障导致19起火灾 报告和1起与该问题相关的人身伤害报告后，正在全球范围内召回37.5万辆插电式混合动力Jeep牧马人 和大切诺基SUV，并敦促车主在车辆完成修复前，应将车辆停在远离建筑物的地方，并避免充电，以防 火灾风险。 Stellantis是由意、美、法三国车企合并而成的汽车集团，旗下包括阿尔法·罗密欧、雪铁龙、Jeep、玛莎 拉蒂、欧宝、标致等十多个汽车品牌。 根据Stellantis官方网站消息，其2025年第三季度合并交付给经销 ...

首先，公司的应收账款规模持续攀升，令人警惕。截至2025年6月末，环动科技的应收账款账面价值已 高达32,529.81万元，占流动资产的比例达到了56.00%。随着公司经营规模的扩大，应收账款余额持续 维持在较高水平，而应收账款周转率却有所下降。虽然公司的主要客户大多是国内机器人领域的龙头企 业和上市公司，商业信誉较强，但如果未来市场环境发生不利变化，或者主要客户自身的经营业绩或履 约能力恶化，公司将面临应收账款无法及时收回的风险。 其次，在存货管理方面，随着业务规模的扩张，公司存货规模预计也将相应上升。截至2025年6月末， 公司存货账面价值为10,735.18万元。尽管公司采用"以销定产加安全库存"的生产模式，但若未来市场需 求出现重大不利变化，或者产品更新迭代，可能导致原材料积压或产成品滞销，从而使公司面临存货跌 价损失的风险，进而影响公司的经营业绩和财务状况。 环动科技在市场结构上对大客户的依赖程度极高，这无疑成为监管机构关注的焦点之一。报告期内，公 司对前五名客户的销售收入占当期营业收入的比例居高不下，最高时曾达到92.12%（2023年度）。其 中，对第一大客户埃斯顿的销售依赖度尤其突出。埃斯顿贡 ...
