科学家正“积极”加快世界末日的核武器研发，以求领先于美国和俄罗斯

China is 'aggressively' develo next generation doomsday nuclear weapons to get ahead in its arms race with the US and Russia.

正在“积极”发展下一代世界末日核武器，以求在与美国和俄罗斯的军备竞赛中取得领先地位。

The country's scientists are conducting five times as many nuclear weapons experiments a year as US experts, according to a major Chinese weapons laboratory.

据一个大型武器实验室称，科学家每年进行的核武器试验数量是美国的五倍。

Experts warned that while China, the US and Russia hope their nuclear weapons programmes will act as a deterrent against potential threats, the escalating arms race is more likely to increase the chances of a doomsday conflict.

专家警告称，尽管、美国和俄罗斯希望他们的核武器计划能对潜在威胁起到震慑作用，但不断升级的军备竞赛更有可能增加世界末日冲突的可能性。

In a new report from the China Academy of Engineering Physics, scientists revealed that Chinese researchers carried out 200 laboratory experiments between September 2014 and December 2018.

工程物理研究院发布的一份新报告中，科学家们透露，科研人员在2014年9月至2018年12月期间进行了200次实验室试验。

For comparison, US scientists carried out 50 such tests between 2012 and 2017, an average of 10 a year, according to the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

根据劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室的数据，美国科学家在2012年至2017年之间进行了50次测试，平均每年10次。

US, Chinese and Russian weapons researchers are racing to build smaller nuclear warheads that allow for strikes on more precise targets.

美国、和俄罗斯的武器研究人员正在竞相建造更小的核弹头，以便打击更精确的目标。

But experts said the creation of more direct nuclear missiles may remove the inhibition to use them.

但是专家说，建造更多的直接核导弹可以解除这些导弹的抑制作用。

'The use of small warheads will lead to the use of bigger ones,' Beiing-based naval expert Li Jie told the South China Morning Post.

北京的海军专家李杰在接受《南华早报》采访时说，“小型弹头的使用将会导致大弹头的使用。”

He added that although China is unlikely to use these weapons it needed to develop them to keep up with Russian and US programmes.

他补充说，尽管不太可能使用这些武器，但需要研发这些武器，以跟紧俄罗斯和美国。

'If other countries use nuclear weapons on us, we have to retaliate. This is probably why there is research to develop new weapons.'

“如果其他国家对我们使用核武器，我们必须进行报复。这可能就是为什么研究开发新武器的原因。”

With an international ban now preventing real tests of nuclear weapons, most countries conduct advanced simulations to study the capabilities of their devices.

由于国际上禁止对核武器进行真正的试验，大多数国家都进行了先进的模拟试验，以研究武器的性能。

During the experiments high-powered gas guns fire projectiles into weapons-grade materials in a laboratory.

实验室中，在实验过程中，高能瓦斯枪向武器级材料射击。

Each blast simulated the extreme heat, pressure and shock waves produced in a real nuclear blast but on a far smaller scale.

每一次爆炸都模拟了真实核爆炸产生的极端高温、压力和冲击波，但规模要小得多。

Scientists then study the effects of the impact and scale them up to better understand the impacts of nuclear missiles and other weapons technology.

科学家们随后研究了这些效果，并将其扩大，以便更好地了解核导弹和其他武器技术的威力。

Chinese researchers have carried out more of these tests in the past three years than US researchers have over the last 15.

在过去三年里，的研究人员进行的测试比美国研究人员在过去15年里进行的更多。

The US detonated more than 1,000 nuclear warheads between 1945 and 1996, when the UN's Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty was signed.

联合国签订了《全面禁止核试验条约》，但美国在1945年至1996年引爆了1000多枚核弹头。

China conducted 45 such tests starting from 1964, leaving it long a way behind the US in live detonation experiments.

从1964年开始，进行了45次这样的测试，在现场爆炸试验中远远落后于美国。

Professor Wang Chuanbin, from the State Key Laboratory of Advanced Technology for Materials Synthesis and Processing at the Wuhan University of Technology, told the SCMP: 'It is possible we are in a hurry to catch up'.

武汉科技大学材料合成与加工高级技术国家重点实验室的王传斌教授对《南华早报》说:“我们有可能着急追赶对手。”
