4、nd development of hybrid rice,achieving increasinglyhigher outputs.In 2020,hybrid rice developed by Yuans team achieved 1,500 kilograms per mu in two growingseasons,a new world record.InChina,where rice is the main food for the majority of the 1.4 billion people,the planting area of hybrid ricehas r

5、eached 16 million hectares,or 57%of the total planting area of rice,helping feed an extra 80 million peoplea year.Hybridricehasalsobeengrowninover40countries,includingtheU.S.,Brazil,India,Vietnam,thePhilippinesandMadagascar.The total planting area of the hybrid rice has reached 8 million hectares ov

6、erseas.Even after a great success,Yuan never held himself back from making new breakthroughs.In 2017,his teamstarted to grow seawater rice inQingdao.The rice was designed to grow in saline-alkaline land and survive evenafter being completely in seawater.His team planned to develop a type of seawater

7、 rice that could be planted in6.67 million hectares of saline-alkaline land acrossChinato boost the countrys rice harvest by about 20%.In 2018,Yuans team was invited to plant the saline-alkaline tolerant rice in experimental fields inDubai,which achievedhuge success.In June 2020,his team started to

8、grow seawater rice on a farm at an altitude of 2,800 meters innorthwestChinasQinghaiProvince.The experiment succeeded.Yuan had two dreams to“enjoy the cool under the rice crops taller than men”and that hybrid rice couldbe grown all over the world to help solve the global food shortage.1.What made Yu

14、d.Every lens designer worth his salt has at some time in his careerattempted to apply the broad concepts of Hamiltonian optics to the solutions of practical problems.Success hasbeen sufficiently rare that the theory,as such,has made little direct contribution to techniques for opticalinstrument desi

15、gn.The failures have been frustrating because of the obvious fundamental power of the theoryand because of its conceptual elegance.The indirect effects have been large,however,both in contributing to anunderstanding of fundamental principles that govern the overall behavior of optical systems and in

16、 pointing theway to other,more practical,theoretical approaches.Buchdahl approaches the subject not only as a capable mathematical physicist,but as one who with aknowledge of practical optics has made a significant contribution to geometrical optical theory.Buchdahlsapproach has,over the last decade

17、,had a major impact on modern lens design with computers.Thus,he brings tothis exposition of Hamiltonian optics a familiarity with practical optics not usually found in authors on this subject.The author claims his book to be non-mathematical,and indeed it might be so viewed by a professionalmathema

18、tician.From the point of view of many physicists and engineers,it will appear to be quite mathematical.Moreover,this is a tightly written book.The subject matter is developed with precision,and the author expectsthe reader,at very point,to be master of the preceding exposition.4.Hamiltonian theory m
