Monash University, University of Queensland and Australian National University researchers have used ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron in their study of meteorites found on Earth that could be used in future to find evidence of life on the planet Mars.

Dr Mathew Johansen, an environmental scientist at ANSTO, presented in an online IAEA training workshop on Advanced Topics in Radiochemistry Techniques this week.

A new imaging technology developed at ANSTO makes it possible to image, identify and locate gamma-ray radiation in a safe and timely manner.

Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science provided strong evidence that some culturally significant trees on Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) have persisted for up to more than 500 years

ANSTO is committed to monitoring its environmental performance and providing the community with accurate information about it. We also publish live meteorological data from our 49m Lucas Heights weather tower every 15 minutes.

ANSTO is responsible for the Little Forest Legacy Site (LFLS) located within the ANSTO Buffer Zone boundary. This site, formerly known as the Little Forest Burial Ground (LFBG), was used by the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) during the 1960’s to dispose of waste containing low levels of radioactivity and beryllium oxide (non-radioactive) in a series of shallow trenches. There has been regular monitoring of the site since 1966 and the results have been reported in ANSTO’s environmental monitoring reports.

At ANSTO we understand that diverse teams produce better outcomes – and we value the merit that a diverse perspective can bring to the quality and outcomes of our work, and the way we get the job done.

The Graduate Institute is part of ANSTO’s Innovation Precinct and links all graduates together to create a network of Australia’s brightest young minds focused on the future.

PNG Fisheries expresses great satisfaction with the progress of aquaculture initiative.

With more than 50 years of experience in monitoring natural and anthropogenic radionuclides in the environment, ANSTO can provide the crucial data and insights you need to assist with the planning and risk management associated with oil and gas decommissioning.

Research indicates that the portable x-ray fluorescence (XRF) is an appropriate analytical technique for determining seafood provenance at external sites.

The SAAFE Program supports early career researchers at PhD and Postdoctoral level to expand research and innovation activities within Human Health, the Environment and the Nuclear Fuel Cycle, to initiate sustainable research networks and linkages to support Australia, New Zealand and France research and innovation.
