On September 19, Anhui University made an announcement: the research team, headed by Kuang Guangli, working on the 'High-Power Light and Magnet Experimental Facility,' has triumphantly concluded the testing and aging experiments for the 'microwave power source system.' This system serves as a pivotal part of the infrared free-electron laser. During the tests, the system demonstrated a consistent output of 32MW over a 12-hour period, signifying a major leap in the overall assembly and advancement of the project.

As China's inaugural high-end research platform that amalgamates free-electron lasers, intense magnetic fields, and ultra-low-temperature settings, the microwave power source system of this facility is aptly dubbed the 'heart' that powers the infrared free-electron laser system. The stable output power attained this time surpassed the physical design projections and comprehensively fulfilled the operational prerequisites of the linear accelerator.

Since the inception of testing and aging on July 21, the research team has adeptly tackled several critical technical hurdles. The system has exhibited stable performance throughout under rigorous conditions, with all indicators aligning with the anticipated outcomes.
