New class of conducting materials found for potential use in next generation fuel cells and other applications.

ANSTO scientists were members of an inter-disciplinary team led by the University of Sydney, who examined six 19th century West African swords, using a non-invasive multi-methodological approach to reveal the composition and manufacturing history of the iron implements.

ANSTO contributes to major study on global warming by measuring methane and carbon monoxide trapped in ice.

ANSTO researchers contribute to study which finds evidence of Aboriginal occupation 65,000 years ago in Northern Australia.

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.

The University of Newcastle and UNSW [GW1] are using advanced neutron scattering techniques at ANSTO to carry out research on the structure of polymers in complex salt environments that will ultimately provide a way to predict their behaviour for real-world applications.
