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.

The High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography beamline will enable the study of very small (sub-5 micrometre) or weakly diffracting crystals, providing a state-of-the-art high-throughput facility for researchers. MX3 will be able to study the structures of large proteins and protein complexes for virology, drug design and industrial applications via goniometer mounted crystals, in-tray screening, or via serial crystallography methods.

Grant supports development of handheld technology to verify origin of seafood.

Measurement research undertaken to ensure safe, well-engineered nanoparticles

Advanced imaging technique used to study triggers that lead to tree death

A cross-disciplinary team has used laboratory-based and synchrotron-based infrared spectroscopy imaging techniques to monitor the waxy surface of living plant leaves in real-time to gain insights into plant physiology in response to disease, biological changes or environmental stress.

Analysing the microstructure of paracetamol using synchrotron infrared optical technique provides insights.

The first National Graduate Innovation Forum will be held in November to connect PhD students with representatives from four of Australia’s leading industries to apply scientific thinking to current real-world challenges. 

Theinstrument is typically used to study diffusing water molecules or yet larger molecules like polymers or biological molecules. In addition, Emu can reveal quantum-mechanical tunnelling.

A new systematic investigation of the origins of atomic structural distortions in compounds containing uranium has relevance for spent nuclear fuel .

The process by which plastic degrades in the ocean facilitates its entry into the natural carbon cycle efficiently as carbon dioxide.

The Australian Government recently signed a landmark emissions reduction technology deal with Great Britain, which includes nuclear energy and clean hydrogen among the six key low emission technologies the two countries hope to advance.

Health researchers have developed a new method for producing PET radiotracers.

A team of scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) has discovered how a powerful “weapon” used by many fungal pathogens enables them to cause disease in major food crops such as rice and corn
