Journal appointment

Garry McIntyre joins editorial board of Journal of Applied Crystallography.

Water Isotope Network

Water Isotope Network

Currently ANSTO partners with the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to operate the Australian GNIP stations with samples analysed at ANSTO’s Environmental Isotope Laboratories in Sydney.

Going underground to understand Australia's past climate variability

Given the importance of water in Australia, surprisingly, there is relatively little information about the past variability of rainfall on this continent. Although there is a good annual record of the past 100 years in Australia, there is nothing much before that period and no known cave deposit records exist for New South Wales.

Molten salt reactor

Reactor systems

ANSTO researchers investigate the behavior of materials in extreme environments, to analyse and predict how they will behave under adverse conditions.

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.

Monitoring fine particle air pollution in Newcastle

ANSTO has been measuring and characterising fine particle pollution from key sites around Australia for more than 30 years. 

This data set provides records from 1998 to 2019 of the concentration of 12 elements present in fine airborne particulate matter from an air sampling station located in Mayfield in Newcastle, NSW.

Advisory Committee meets

Research portfolio and future expansion of Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering discussed

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.

Facilities meeting

Australian Centre for Neutorn Scattering - National Deuteration Facility Advisory Committee meets

Computing infrastructure

X-ray instruments, physical properties measurements, sample environments, helium polarising system and computing infrastructure

Highlights Cultural Heritage

Highlights - Cultural Heritage

Over the last decades, neutron, photon, and ion beams have been established as an innovative and attractive investigative approach to characterise cultural-heritage materials.

PIXE Microbeam on Sirius

Particle Induced X-ray Emission

Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) is a powerful and relatively simple analytical technique that can be used to identify and quantify trace elements typically ranging from aluminium to to uranium.
