Personal achievements of Yan Jici

From 1927 to 1938, Yan Jici published 53 papers alone or with collaborators, of which the first 11 were published while he was working in France from 1927 to 1931, and the last 42 were Published while working at the Institute of Physics, Peking Research Institute. Among the 53 papers, 40 were in French, 12 in English, and 1 in German. Except for 4 papers published in the English version of Acta Physica Sinica, all of them were published in important academic journals in France, Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries (such as "French Academy of Sciences Weekly", "Nature", "Physical Review", etc.). In 1986, Science Press published the "Collected Scientific Papers of Yan Jici"; in addition, he also edited 10 mathematics and physics textbooks from junior high school to university, such as "Junior High School Arithmetic", "Geometry Proof Method", "General Physics" "Science", "High School Physics", "Junior School Physics", "First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics", "Electromagnetism", etc.

As one of the main members of the Preparatory Committee of the University of Science and Technology of China, he participated in the founding of the school. Proposed and implemented a series of new measures for reform and opening up education, gradually established a complete education system for cultivating bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, adjusted the subject structure, added some departments and majors in emerging technologies, and created a new model among Chinese universities. The first large-scale scientific project, the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, founded China's first junior college student class and trained the first batch of Ph.D.s after China's reform and opening up. While rebuilding the University of Science and Technology, Yan Jici also actively participated in the planning of the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory in Beijing. The Graduate School of the University of Science and Technology of China was established on the site of the former University of Science and Technology of China.

While leading the work of the Institute of Physics, Yan Jici also founded the Radium Institute of Peking Research Institute, focusing on cultivating young talents and pioneering radiochemistry research in China. For more than 10 years, he actively advocated and supported radiochemistry research in China, and strongly recommended students to study in famous laboratories in Britain, France, the United States and other countries, including Lu Xueshan, Zhong Shengbiao, Qian Linzhao, Weng Wenbo, Wu Xuelin, Qian Sanqiang, Fang Shengheng, Chen Shangyi, Lu Dayuan, Yang Chengzong and more than ten people.
