Progress on low energy electronics
Soft X-ray experiments used to characterise new thin film topological Dirac Semimetal.
Engineering of atomic structure improves a promising cathode material for lithium-ion batteries
Researchers from the University of Wollongong have improved a high voltage cathode material to deliver structural stability and an unprecedented electrochemical performance for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in work that is extendable to other types of energy storage materials.
ANSTO supports innovative industry process to minimise plastic waste and maximise feed stock for 3D printing
A possible world record: Studying thin films under extreme temperatures with reflectometry
A team of researchers from ANSTO and University of Technology Sydney have set a record by conducting thin film experiments at 1100 degrees C.
From ice cores to cosmic events: plenary speakers announced
Four international authorities will deliver plenary addresses virtually at the 15th International Conference on Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS15) , which will be held online from 15-19 November.
Simulation of radiation damage assists prototyping a new self-healing solar cell for next generation of power in space
Researchers developing new materials and devices that can withstand the harsh radiation environment in space are using the unique ANSTO’s capability to simulate the effects of high-energy ion irradiation on the properties and performance of these materials and devices.
Haemoglobin study sheds light on one of our bodies most important molecules
Scientific Computing
The Scientific Computing team supports researchers by performing numerical simulations that complement experimental research. In particular, we use state-of-the-art software to perform computational quantum mechanical modelling, molecular dynamics simulations, lattice dynamics calculation, data analysis and visualisations.

New screening method developed to confirm if deuteration improves metabolic stability.
Evidence of quantum state in spin cluster chain
Phenomenon predicted by Nobel Prize recipient
Evidence of earliest Aboriginal occupation of Australian coast
Evidence of the earliest occupation of the coasts of Australia from Barrow Island, Northwest Australia.
A step closer to understanding superconductivity with large international collaboration
Advanced imaging techniques provide earliest evidence of fruit-eating by ancient bird
International palaeontologists have used advanced imaging techniques at ANSTO’S Australian Synchrotron to clarify the role that the earliest fruit-eating birds of the Cretaceous period may have had in helping fruit-producing plants to evolve.
Transforming waste coffee grounds into next generation batteries
Research confirms that ancient Tasmania was not a ‘wilderness’ but an Indigenous cultural landscape
Recent studies led by the University of Melbourne have revealed that the Palawa people’s ancient land stewardship techniques have profoundly shaped the landscape of western Lutruwita, within the traditional territories located in Tasmania.
Improved understanding of progression rates in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, and schizophrenia

The evolution of molten salt reactors
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.
