The Powder Diffraction beamline at the Australian Synchrotron is optimised for carrying out structural investigation under non ambient conditions and as a function of time.

ANSTO infrastructure and capabilities is ideally suited for solving problems relating to the development and characterisation of advanced materials, the engineering of manufactured components and manufacturing processes.

Professor Peter Lay from the University of Sydney has been awarded the Australian Synchrotron Lifetime Contribution Award by ANSTO, the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation.

The independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, is currently accepting submissions about ANSTO’s planned $59.8 million Intermediate Level Solid Waste Storage Facility.

ANSTO has contributed to international research on quasicrystals that opens the door to tailored magnetic materials.

An international team led by scientists at City University of Hong Kong has found flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) with one-dimensional channels that acts as a “molecular trapdoor” to selectively adsorb gases, such as carbon dioxide, in response to temperature and pressure changes.

Nuclear science is crucial to understanding our universe, our world and ourselves at the atomic level. If we can understand how atoms get together, interact, or can be best combined with other atoms, new, more efficient materials and drugs can be developed.

ANSTO is helping change the way science is taught in the classroom - converting that dusty old periodic table into an augmented reality app that brings the elements to life.

With zero carbon emissions, green hydrogen is a promising fuel for many industries. PhD candidate Robert Walwyn, is researching new, advanced materials for safe and effective hydrogen gas storage.

An accomplished international photographer has capture dazzling new images of one component of the main ring at our Australian Synchrotron and provided an inside view of the electron’s path when it is used.

Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is an ultra-sensitive analytical technique based on the use of an ion accelerator as a powerful mass spectrometer.

Electron and X-ray diffraction techniques provide insights into material damage under stress-strain conditions.

ANSTO can analyse minute amounts of organic or inorganic matter embedded in a complex material
