ANSTO conducts and enables research to address some of Australia’s and the world’s most challenging environmental problems.

Research to improve knowledge of natural variability in rainfall and recharge by monitoring hydrological processes in key regions and reconstruct water recharge history.

The need for a smaller, more transportable version of ANSTO’s 1500-litre atmospheric radon-222 monitor, and with a calibration traceable to the International System of Units, prompted the team to develop a 200-litre radon monitor that would meet those needs.

An environmental study supported by a citizen science project at ANSTO and UNSW has brought  greater understanding of the movement of birds between all of Australia’s major water basins and the importance of the Murray-Darling River Basin.

Proposals at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering and National Deuteration Facility.

Using nuclear techniques to help sustain Australia's finite groundwater resources

Environmental researcher joins Science & Technology Australia as Cluster representative for the Chemical Sciences

ANSTO continues a longstanding, mutually-beneficial research relationship with the University of Wollongong following the signing of a strategic agreement this week.

Research undertaken to understand ancient record of algal blooms

The Imaging and Medical beamline (IMBL) is a flagship beamline of the Australian Synchrotron built with considerable support from the NHMRC. It is one of only a few of its type, and delivers the world’s widest synchrotron x-ray ‘beam’.

Radiation can be described as energy or particles from a source that travel through space or other mediums. Light, heat, and wireless communications are all forms of radiation.

The BRIGHT Nanoprobe beamline provides a unique facility capable of spectroscopic and full-field imaging. NANO will undertake high-resolution elemental mapping and ptychographic coherent diffraction imaging. Elemental mapping and XANES studies (after DCM upgrade) will be possible at sub-100 nm resolution, with structural features able to be studied down to 15 nm using ptychography.

ANSTO provides a range of capabilities using neutrons, X-rays and infrared radiation to study the solids, liquids and gases that might be found in materials in our solar system and beyond.
