New survey uncovers the crystal building blocks of Saturn’s moon Titan
Researchers from ANSTO and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory have uncovered the likely mineral composition of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, revealing a world of exotic organic crystals unlike any found on Earth.
Building knowledge of changes in uranium chemistry
A new systematic investigation of the origins of atomic structural distortions in compounds containing uranium has relevance for spent nuclear fuel .
Soft x-ray spectroscopy
Soft x-rays are generally understood to be x-rays in the energy range 100-3,000 eV. They have insufficient energy to penetrate the beryllium window of a hard x-ray beamline but have energies higher than that of extreme ultraviolet light.

Transistors and NASA's radiation paradox: strength in detection, weakness in space operations
The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.

Promising material provides a simple, effective method capable of extracting uranium from seawater
An Australian-led international research team, including a core group of ANSTO scientists, has found that doping a promising material provides a simple, effective method capable of extracting uranium from seawater.
ANSTO's neutrons will help miners see what's inside drill cores with new clarity
The mining industry is set to benefit from a new Australian capability that uses a nuclear scanning technique to detect the presence of precious metals and strategic minerals in a core sample.

An innovative way to deliver drugs using nanocrystals shows potential benefits
Monash University researchers have used advanced techniques at ANSTO to investigate the production of new, elongated polymer nanocapsules with a high payload of drug nanocrystals to potentially increase drug targetability, and also decrease dosage frequency and side effects.
