Explore ANSTO's range of publications and reports available for the public.

Close to 3000 members of the public decided to have a look at a building that is shaped like a doughnut, is as big as a football field and creates light more powerful than the sun when the Australian Synchrotron held its bi-annual Open Day held on Sunday, 16 October.

A pioneering study led by Professor Junpei Yamanaka of Nagoya City University and an international team that included ANSTO has delivered transformative insights into the behaviour of colloidal particles under microgravity.

ANSTO, the home of Australia’s nuclear science expertise and the Powerhouse Museum, home of Australia’s excellence and innovation in the applied arts and sciences will collaborate on research projects, establish an Indigenous Cultural Research Scholarship and combine efforts on STEM outreach activities.

The Advanced Diffraction and Scattering beamlines (ADS-1 and ADS-2) are two independently operating, experimentally flexible beamlines that will use high-energy X-ray diffraction and imaging to characterise the structures of new materials and minerals.

Advanced X-ray techniques have revealed new structural details about the specific arrangement of atoms in conjugated polymers, an important class of materials that are used in LEDs, organic solar cells, transistors, sensors and thermoelectric power devices.

The nuclear analysis team at ANSTO recently had a significant role in the re-design and optimisation of a cold neutron source facility for the reactor, its installation and the subsequent restart after a six-month shutdown.

Research confirms that methylcellulose, one of the most widely used hydrogel-forming materials in biomedical research and consumer products, organises itself into a structural architecture

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.
