Cosmogenic Isotope Dating

Landscape reconstruction using cosmogenic isotope dating

The application of cosomogenic radionuclides in the Earth sciences has provided the essential geochronological timing of continental and polar glacial history over the past few millions years, and revolutionised our understanding of the processes controlling landscape evolution on spatial scales of metres to kilometres.

Sharing groundwater expertise

ANSTO expertise provides much-needed information about groundwater resources in the Mozambique capital and district.

Shielding space shuttle

Materials in extreme environments

Materials researchers focus on development, performance and in-service degradation of nickel-based superalloys, reinforced carbon-Carbon (C/C) composites, and ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC).

The characterisation of planetary materials

ANSTO provides a range of capabilities using neutrons, X-rays and infrared radiation to study the solids, liquids and gases that might be found in materials in our solar system and beyond.

International Space Station

Understanding the full impact of radiation on astronauts

In collaboration with the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM) and the French International Space Agency (CNES), ANSTO scientists are undertaking research on the radiobiological effects of secondary particles that are created when radiation interacts with the shielding on the International Space Station.

Sirius accelerator

Ion beam analysis techniques

When an energetic ion beam hits a sample it will interact with the atoms through a number of very complex interactions. By detecting and measuring the reaction products resulting from the various interactions and their intensities, you can obtain quantitative data on the sample's constituent elements and their spatial distribution.

Radiation measurement

Radiation measurement

ANSTO maintains national capabilities in radionuclide metrology, the measurement and detection of ionising radiation, radioanalytical chemistry and nuclear forensics to support industry, government and scientific users.

Phoebe joined Taronga as part of the Wildlife Hospital team in 2012, where she developed a research interest in conservation forensics, leading an international project developing forensic tools to help save the world’s most hea

Nuclear forensics lab bench

Nuclear forensics

ANSTO provides nuclear forensic analysis and advice in support of law enforcement and training to domestic and international partners

Advanced Manufacturing

Advanced materials and manufacturing processes

ANSTO infrastructure and capabilities is ideally suited for solving problems relating to the development and characterisation of advanced materials, the engineering of manufactured components and manufacturing processes.

Radioanalytical chemistry

Radioanalytical chemistry

ANSTO’s Radioanalytical Chemistry (RAC) facility combines techniques in radiochemistry and radiological measurement by alpha spectrometry, gamma-ray spectrometry, and liquid scintillation analysis to deliver radiological assessments.
