Understanding fine particle pollution
Thirty years of ANSTO's unique capability in monitoring fine particle pollution provides insight on bushfire smoke.
Biking for research
Research confirms that ancient Tasmania was not a ‘wilderness’ but an Indigenous cultural landscape
Recent studies led by the University of Melbourne have revealed that the Palawa people’s ancient land stewardship techniques have profoundly shaped the landscape of western Lutruwita, within the traditional territories located in Tasmania.
Ancient groundwater enters food web
Ancient groundwater in Australia contributing carbon to food webs through surface water.
Understanding how a common food additive causes changes in the microbiome
ANSTO has collaborated on a study assessing the impact of the commonly-used food additive titanium dioxide (TiO2) on gut microbiota and inflammation.
Distinguished researchers who use synchrotron techniques recognised
Study confirms fraudulent Kakadu plum product is in the international marketplace jeopardising authentic Indigenous products
Research confirms that fraudulent Kakadu plum extracts are in circulation online and in the international marketplace.
Multiple techniques elucidate hardness with radiation damage
3D models of multilayered structures on engineering scale from nanoscale damage profiles.
Tuning thermomechanical properties
Wombat used in study that showed tuneable thermal expansion by controlled gas sorption.
Discovery of molecular structure wins prestigious chemistry award
Research demonstrates the existence of hexagonal planar geometry in a transition metal complex with great potential application across multiple disciplines.

The evolution of molten salt reactors
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.

Revealing the 'hidden half' of grain using imaging at ANSTO's Australian Synchrotron to benefit Australian agriculture
Professor of Soil Science at The University of Queensland, Peter Kopittke and partner investigator Prof Enzo Lombi of the University of SA are very optimistic about the use of a new synchrotron-based imaging technique that captures in 3D the complex interaction of soil and root.
