An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

A second-year Master's student from the Department of Physics and Engineering Computer Science developed software for the synchronization system and detector of the experimental station at the synchrotron radiation source.Faculty of Physics of Novosibirsk State University Maria Yartseva. These devices will be installed at one of the stations of the Siberian Ring Photon Source (SKIF). She conducted her work as part of a research team at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS laboratory, which specializes in developing detectors for experiments using synchrotron radiation. The scientific supervision was provided by Lev Shekhtman, Chief Researcher at the INP SB RAS and Doctor of Physics and Mathematics, and Vasily Kudryavtsev, Researcher at the INP SB RAS. This work was carried out as part of the strategic technology project "Center for the Integration of Personalized Biomedicine, Pharmacy, and Synchrotron and Binary Technologies." Priority 2030 program.

"My task was to create specialized software for the direct photon counting detector, which would allow for control of the device—taking data, configuring and calibrating it—as well as for the synchronization unit—to generate control signals depending on events occurring during the experiment at the station," said Maria Yartseva.

User programs were developed in C using the Qt framework in the Qt Creator development environment, and the FPGA code was developed using SystemVerilog in the Quartus Prime environment. The ModelSim simulation environment was used to debug the developed modules. All programs were developed under the Linux operating system.

The SciCODE single-axis semiconductor direct photon counting detector has no Russian equivalent. It was developed to replace the OD-3M gas detector, developed at the INP SB RAS in the late 1990s. The new device features faster response times and high spatial resolution and is designed for research using diffraction methods. Similar detectors are available from Switzerland, but the SciCODE direct photon counting detector differs from them in its ability to more accurately measure photon energy.

In addition to this detector, a whole line of detectors is currently being developed at the INP SB RAS, which will also be used at one of the SKIF stations. Individual parts and modules of the code have already been written or borrowed from existing detector software previously developed by INP SB RAS researchers.

"The SciCODE single-coordinate direct photon counting detector is a highly versatile development. It can be used to study physical processes and chemical reactions using diffraction methods, for example, in pharmaceutical development experiments or in studying the behavior of complex molecules. The detector consists of a semiconductor sensor based on silicon or gallium arsenide. It is mounted on a recording board, which was also developed at the INP SB RAS. Data obtained during experiments is recorded by specialized chips. These chips are controlled by a programmable logic integrated circuit (FPGA) installed on the control board, and data is exchanged with a computer via an Ethernet interface," explained Maria Yartseva.

The software prototype for this detector is currently undergoing refinement of certain functionality and is undergoing laboratory testing.

The synchronization unit will be installed at the same SKIF station as the detectors. It will coordinate the operation of SKIF, the station, and the recording devices. Its manufacture and installation are complete. The device has been tested under experimental conditions at the experimental station at the Siberian Synchrotron and Terahertz Radiation Center of the INP SB RAS.

"The main work is complete; further development of this project involves creating a unified system that would control both the synchronization unit and the detector system during experiments. The synchronization unit also includes a board with an FPGA, and interaction with the software is provided in the same way as with the detectors. This device can be installed at any research station where synchronization of multiple devices is required," said Maria Yartseva.

December 18, 2025 UN

The main news of the day at the UN and around the world: escalation of hostilities between Thailand and Cambodia, the Secretary-General on new sanctions against ICC judges, massive violations in Darfur, the fight against colonialism.

Thailand and Cambodia

The escalation of hostilities between Thailand and Cambodia is causing increasing civilian casualties, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk warned on Thursday. Approximately 750,000 people have been forced to flee their homes. Since fighting resumed on December 7, 18 civilians have been reported killed in Cambodia and one civilian in Thailand. There are also reports of attacks on casinos and suspected cybercrime centers in Cambodia, where victims of human trafficking may also be located. Türk called on the parties to cease hostilities and return to dialogue.

Sanctions against the ICC

Secretary General Antonio Guterres Expressed serious concern over the United States' announcement of sanctions against two more International Criminal Court judges, as well as the ongoing measures against other ICC and UN officials. The Secretary-General reiterates the importance of upholding the principle of judicial independence. UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq stated this today in response to a journalist's question. He stated that while the United Nations and the International Criminal Court are separate institutions, the UN considers the ICC a key pillar of international criminal justice.

Conflict in Sudan

IN new report The UN Human Rights Office describes mass killings, rape and other forms of sexual violence, torture, and abductions committed during the Rapid Reaction Force (RRF) offensive on the Zamzam camp in Darfur, Sudan, in April of this year.

Media: The world needs to learn from China's low-cost innovations

On November 29, the British magazine The Economist published an article titled "The Next Area China Will Dominate: What China's Rapid Innovation Means for the World." The article notes that China is demonstrating rapid progress in both driverless vehicles and pharmaceutical development.

The accelerating revolution in driverless taxis could transform the transportation and logistics industries, as well as everyday life in cities. The cost of producing such taxis in China is only a third of that in the US, and Chinese manufacturers have already established partnerships in Europe and the Middle East.

In the pharmaceutical industry, China has transformed itself from a generic drug producer into the second-largest country in the world in terms of research and development of new drugs. Today, many Western competitors are acquiring patent licenses from Chinese companies, and it seems the emergence of Chinese pharmaceutical giants is just around the corner.

The successful development of these two industries clearly demonstrates China's innovative model. A large talent pool, a vast manufacturing base, and the sheer scale of production combine to enable China to rapidly advance up the global value chain.

More surprisingly, a flexible and open regulatory system has been a key element of China's success. After China announced its goal of becoming a global biotechnology power in 2016, the country quickly implemented a series of reforms. China also pioneered experiments in self-driving taxis.

Affordable Chinese medicines are expected to benefit the entire world, especially developing countries. China is no less important for the research and development of Western pharmaceutical companies; a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship may even develop between them. As for driverless taxis, they will likely follow the traditional path of Chinese technology exports: facing barriers in the US market, they will be able to gain a foothold in other regions of the world.

How should the rest of the world respond to this trend? Mindless protectionism under the guise of "safety" is undoubtedly wrong. For the West, blocking or restricting access to Chinese innovations will deprive consumers of cheaper and higher-quality medicines and transportation services.

Western economies therefore need to rethink their own innovation mechanisms. If the West intends to remain competitive in driverless vehicles and pharmaceutical development, it must learn valuable lessons from China's experience in low-cost innovation.

As of December 13, 2025, the total box office revenue of the Chinese film market exceeded 50 billion yuan, breaking the figures for the entire previous year and setting a new record.

Below is a list of the top ten films to hit the Chinese box office in 2025, based on the latest box office data:

1. The animated fantasy film "Nezha Defeats the Dragon King" (Nezha 2), total box office revenue – 15.446 billion yuan.

2. Comedy thriller "Chinatown Detective 1900", total box office revenue – 3.612 billion yuan.

3. The animated film "Zootopia 2" (USA), box office revenue – 3.350 billion yuan.

4. Historical war film "Nanjing Photo Studio", total box office revenue – 3.017 billion yuan.

5. Historical war film "731", total box office revenue – 1.943 billion yuan.

6. The animated comedy "Little Demons Journey to the West", total box office revenue – 1.719 billion yuan.

7. Crime action film "Shadow Hunt", total box office collection – 1.265 billion yuan.

8. Epic fantasy "Creation of the Gods: Battle with Demons", total box office revenue – 1.239 billion yuan.

9. Animated film "Escape from the Future", total box office revenue – 822 million yuan.

10. Historical drama "The Lichi of Chang'an", total box office revenue – 691 million yuan.

With Chinese-made films dominating, the Year of Animation is becoming a major event.

2025 will be a triumphant year for "domestic films" at the Chinese box office. In the first half of the year, domestic films accounted for an impressive 91.2% of the box office revenue. Domestic films made the top ten grossing films for the year, sweeping every competition, comparable in intensity to Grand Slam tournaments.

The year 2025 was celebrated in the film industry under the motto "The Year of Animation." The releases of "Ne Zha 2" at the beginning of the year, "Little Demons Go West" during the summer season, and "Zootopia 2" (USA) at the end of the year triggered a chain reaction throughout the year, creating the phenomenon of "three breakout hits." This event marked the emergence of animated films as a new frontier, transforming them from products aimed at children or a niche audience into mainstream fare with broad appeal.

The emerging interplay between box office revenue and industries: leading animated films have demonstrated a remarkable ability to stimulate related industries. Sales of branded merchandise, i.e., merchandise for the film "Nezha 2," are expected to exceed hundreds of billions of yuan. Even before the theatrical release of "Little Demons Journey to the West," the producers of the animated film had partnered with over 30 renowned brands, and on the day of the film's release, merchandise sales exceeded 7 million yuan. This integrated model of "film merchandising and cultural tourism" is shaping a completely new business ecosystem.

The parallel development of thematic creativity and a diversity of genres helps to satisfy the diverse demands of viewers.

The year 2025 coincided with the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Historical films such as "Nanjing Photographer" and "731," based on real events, immortalize historical memory through cinematic means, achieving a combination of social impact and economic benefit. In particular, "Nanjing Photographer," released in many countries abroad, sparked heated debate, becoming an example of how Chinese stories successfully "enter the international market."

The suspense comedy "Chinatown Detective 1900," the gritty action film "Shadowhunter," and the sweeping Eastern fantasy "Gods' Creation: Battle with Demons" all topped various film ratings throughout the year, demonstrating the Russian film industry's ability to confidently create masterpieces in established commercial genres.

Overall, the Chinese film market in 2025, thanks to strong box office receipts and the supply of high-quality content, has cemented its leading position globally. The complete victory of domestic films, the historic breakthrough of the animation genre, and the deepening of the multi-industry "Film" model were the three key events of this year. This is seen not simply as a box office triumph, but also as a comprehensive manifestation of China's improving film industry system and the continued growth of China's burgeoning cultural creativity.

New wording in proposals for the 15th Five-Year Plan: These three groups should receive more in income distribution

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Income distribution directly affects the vital interests of the population. The "Proposals of the CPC Central Committee on the Formulation of the 15th Five-Year Program for National Economic and Social Development" clearly outline the need to "improve the income distribution system" and set the task of "improving the primary distribution mechanism based on the market assessment of the contribution of various factors of production and determining wages in accordance with their contribution, and promoting greater rewards for those who work harder, have higher qualifications, or actively engage in innovative activities."

"These three groups, which can benefit more, together form a value orientation that encourages the whole society to work hard," said Wei Guoxue, director of the strategic planning department of the Institute of Social Development of the National Development and Reform Commission.

"The more you work, the more you get." When employers set wage standards based on working hours, workload, and employee contribution, this embodies the principle of "the more you work, the more you get." This principle clearly identifies labor as the starting point for value creation, allowing honest and hardworking workers to receive the rewards they deserve.

"The higher the qualifications, the higher the reward": the purpose of this principle is to improve the wages and social status of highly qualified personnel, which will contribute to the optimization and modernization of China's labor force structure.

According to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the total number of skilled workers in China currently exceeds 220 million, including over 72 million highly skilled. This provides a solid human resource base for achieving high-level scientific and technological self-sufficiency and building a modern industrial system.

In recent years, in line with the needs of industrial transformation and the development of new technologies, China has been carrying out large-scale vocational training.

During the 14th Five-Year Plan, more than 44 million people received professional qualification certificates, and over 6,000 were awarded the titles of "highest-category specialist" and "leading specialist." Many of them earn salaries comparable to those of mid- and senior-level managers. In practice, the principle of "higher qualifications, higher rewards" benefits both companies and employees, becoming a "reciprocal movement."

"Those who innovate reap the most benefits": in traditional manufacturing, even a small technological improvement can generate tens of millions of yuan in economic gains. For emerging industries such as artificial intelligence and the digital economy, the importance of innovation is paramount.

"Innovative activity is naturally accompanied by high risks and uncertainty, so the expectation of excess profits as compensation and reward is necessary," noted Wei Guoxue. Improving the relevant system will facilitate the full realization of innovative potential and the achievement of a high level of scientific and technological independence.
