This month ANSTO is opening its doors to 11 talented young people from across Australia as the two-year Graduate Program kickstarts.

There have been significant developments in small modular reactor technologies in 2022. The International Atomic Energy Agency expects small modular reactors (SMRs) to make an important contribution to achieving global climate goals and energy supply security. But with more than 70 SMR designs under development in 18 countries – including innovative reactors that are yet to be licensed and novel methods of modular manufacturing that are new to the nuclear industry – widely deploying SMRs in time remains a tall task.

2025 marks the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Metre Convention—a milestone that underscores a century and a half of international collaboration in measurement science. T

Both the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering  and the National Deuteration Facility share in grants

Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis (ERDA) is used principally as a method for measuring hydrogen in thin layers, and in the near-surface region of materials.

ANSTO, Australia’s knowledge centre for nuclear science and technology, connects STEM graduates with industry to work on real-world challenges through its FutureNow Scholarships for 2022.

A large international team led by scientists from the Institute for Superconducting and Electronic Materials at the University of Wollongong has verified that the introduction of  novel molecular orbital interactions can improve the structural stability of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

Principal Research Scientist Andrew Smith is travelling to the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica with American collaborators on a 3-year National Science Foundation project now in its final year that involves mining tonnes of ice for palaeoclimate research.

Australia’s new Mo-99 manufacturing facility reaches practical completion

A major study has identified urbanisation and climate change as future threats to drinking water quality.

Research elucidates how in situ cosmogenic radiocarbon is produced, retained and lost in the top layer of compacting snow (the ‘firn layer’) and the shallow ice below at an ice accumulation site in Greenland.

The Australian Synchrotron has an on-site Guesthouse for users and AS guests.

A “super” receptor that helps kill HIV infected cells identified.

Invisible deuterated detergents revealed

Samples on the X-ray fluorescence microscopy beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.

Modifications to promising novel non-fullerene small molecule acceptor in organic thin film for solar cells demonstrates improved power conversion efficiency.
