In space, without the protection of the magnetosphere, the type and dose of radiation is considerably different to what is naturally experienced on earth. However, it is the secondary particles of lower energies created when galactic and cosmic radiation interacts with shielding that is of concern for 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.
SVSR is seeking a highly motivated engineering candidate with excellent communication skills to help better understand and manage odour emission from sewer ventshafts.
ANSTO researchers have taken up the challenge to develop a coating for the cladding used in nuclear reactors to prevent it from taking up hydrogen and releasing it if temperatures get too high and repair itself if damaged.
Highlights of the Energy Materials Project.
Role at ANSTO
The first demonstration of reversible symmetry lowering phase transformation with heating.
New high energy ion microprobe beamline supports space research on the effects of radiation on astronauts.
The Medium Energy- X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy beamlines provides access to XANES and EXAFS data from a bending magnet source, optimised for cutting-edge applications in biological, agricultural and environmental science in an energy range that is not currently available at the Australia Synchrotron.
ANSTO participation in ARC on Intelligent Robotic Systems for Real-time Asset Management has potential benefit in the management of infrastructure and assets
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.
The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.
