Defence requirements push your technology, we can help. ANSTO is home to some of Australia’s most important landmark research infrastructure – more than $1.3bn of it.  Our unique capabilities are used by thousands of Australian researchers from industry and academia every year.

The mining industry is set to benefit from a new Australian capability that uses a nuclear scanning technique to detect the presence of precious metals and strategic minerals in a core sample.

The growth and incorporation of graphene into semiconductor device architectures has been limited by challenges related to the quality, reproducibility, and high process temperatures required to grow it on suitable substrates.

For more than half a century, ANSTO's specialised services have supported the unique requirements of customers working in health, agriculture, defence, mining, nuclear medicine and more.

Professor Elliot Gilbert and Dr Norman Booth have received awards from the Australian Neutron Beam Users Group at the 2021 ANSTO Users Meeting

ANSTO is privileged to be home to an incredible array of outstanding women in science. On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science we wanted to thank each one. Thank you!

ANSTO is one of the world's leading providers of irradiation services for silicon ingots, which are used by the multimillion dollar electronics industry across Europe and Asia. Each year, ANSTO irradiates more than 50 tonnes of silicon.

ANSTO's procurement policy is closely aligned with the Commonwealth Procurement Guidelines and makes use of the Australian National Audit Office guidelines on ethics, accountability and transparency.

The Minerals consultancy group at ANSTO has expertise in chemical engineering, metallurgy, mineralogy, chemistry, geology, and radiation safety. We can support our client's project by providing process development services, technical review, and research.

Our dedicated mineralogists provide specialised knowledge on the mineralogy of ores/concentrates and the wide variety of solids and residues typically generated in hydromet processes. We have well-equipped facilities that can handle a diverse range of samples, particularly those containing elevated concentrations of uranium and thorium.

The unique magnetic properties and nontrivial quantum effects were observed and measured in an advanced material with potential application for quantum computing.

Research explores how structure contributes to function in food

Using neutron imaging techniques at ANSTO, researchers from Macquarie University have gained a better understanding of how corrosion forms and spreads through concrete that is commonly used in sewer pipes.

ANSTO plays a leading role in measuring and characterising fine particles from a range of locations around Australia and internationally.
