Eureka! ANSTO recognised at the Oscars of science
What is synchrotron light?
Synchrotron light is the electromagnetic radiation emitted when electrons, moving at velocities close to the speed of light, are forced to change direction under the action of a magnetic field.
ANSTO Elementals
Elementals is a fun educational app for learning the Periodic Table. teachers and students will find this app useful in supporting science education in the classroom and practicing on the go.
Role at ANSTO
Elements in the 21st Century
Do you love science? Here is a competition for you that combines chemistry and creativity! Discover the world of elements and create a poster for your favourite element in this competition for school-aged students.

ANSTO Work Experience Program
The ANSTO Work Experience Program is extensive, interactive and hands on! It offers students a rare opportunity to engage with world-class scientists, gain exposure to working laboratories and gain insights into pioneering nuclear science research at ANSTO.
ANSTO Hackathon 2024 for National Science Week
Students from across Australia competed in a fast-paced design challenge about species sustainability during ANSTO's 2024 National Science Week Hackathon. Teachers and students can see the winning entries and access design challenge learning resources from our website.
Historic greenhouse gas concentrations from Antarctic ice core sampling
ANSTO Physicist Andrew Smith collaborates with international scientists to study historical greenhouse gas concentrations from Antarctic ice core samples.
This data set contains temperature records and concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane from the last 800,000 years.
Planned 3-week shutdown of OPAL
Australian Industry Becquerel Traceability Program (AIBTP)
The Australian Industry Becquerel Traceability Program (AIBTP) provides facilities with direct measurement traceability to the Australian standard for the activity of radionuclides used in Positron Emission Tomography (PET).
Success with Marsden Fund Grant in New Zealand
Benefits of nuclear science
ANSTO uses nuclear research techniques to address many of the important issues of our time relating to the environment, human health and industry.
Periodic Table of the Elements
This illustrated periodic table explores key information about the chemical elements.
The small poster is also compatible with the ANSTO XR app on iOS and Google play. Alternatively, downloaded posters can be printed landscape on an A3 sheet and hung on a wall to maximise usability.
Aligning Taipan, one of ANSTO's neutron scattering instruments
Scientists ensure their measurements are accurate and precise by regularly calibrating their instruments. In this data set, students manipulate and graph calibration data from Taipan, one of ANSTO's neutron scattering instruments. Students must determine whether Taipan is functioning within the acceptable limits of error for the scientists' experiments.
Radionuclides in medicine
Nuclear medicine uses radiation to provide information about the functioning of a person's specific organs to diagnose or treat disease.
For three unknown medical radionuclides, students will graph their decay over time, use the graph to calculate their half-life, and determine the identify and use of each radionuclide using background information provided.
Earthquake clues unearthed in strange, precariously balanced rocks
Imperial College London researchers tapped into ancient geological data locked within precariously balanced rocks using a new technique to boost the precision of hazard estimates for large earthquakes.
