ANSTO STEAM Club Goes Live In Time For School Holiday Fun!
COVID-19 can’t stop kids with a passion for science and technology, with ANSTO launching our new online STEAM Club just in time for the school holidays.
Man-made fossil emissions larger than previously believed
ANSTO contributes to major study on global warming by measuring methane and carbon monoxide trapped in ice.
Radiation Monitoring
ANSTO continually monitors environmental gamma radiation from a station located in Engadine NSW. ANSTO uses environmental radiation data to evaluate atmospheric dispersion from its site. This radiation is almost completely natural background radiation.
Determining the extent of soil erosion on a NSW vineyard
Space research enabled with new capability
New high energy ion microprobe beamline supports space research on the effects of radiation on astronauts.
Understanding the full impact of radiation on astronauts
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.
Understanding the full impact of radiation on 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.
Celebrating ANSTO and 70 years of Australia’s home-grown nuclear expertise
In 2023 we’re celebrating the 70th Anniversary since Australia began developing our nation’s Australia’s nuclear capabilities.
