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.
New screening method developed to confirm if deuteration improves metabolic stability.
Phenomenon predicted by Nobel Prize recipient
Evidence of the earliest occupation of the coasts of Australia from Barrow Island, Northwest Australia.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Collaboration finds that old carbon reservoirs are unlikely to cause a massive greenhouse gas release in a warming world.
The National Deuteration facility is assisting with the establishment of a Japanese Chemical Deuteration Facility.
The mechanical, electrical, chemical, optical and thermal properties of glass, as determined by its chemical composition and atomic structure, make it a highly useful material with a myriad of applications.
ANSTO is part of collaboration conducting experiments to redefine the kilogram linking it to a fundamental constant of nature.
Radiocarbon dating capabilities at the Centre for Accelerator Science have provided evidence of a 17,300-year old painting of a kangaroo from the Kimberley region.
ANSTO is a partner on the National Space Qualification Network (NSQN) led by the Australian National University (ANU) that will transform Australia into a world-leading space centre by enhancing facilities to test payloads, components, and hardware prior to their use in harsh environments of space.
New technology is being developed in Sydney to recycle used Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and turn it into raw materials for 3D printing.
