In an effort to understand why the Tongan Hunga volcano eruption was so explosive, internationally-recognised volcanologist Prof. Shane Cronin of the University of Auckland and associates rely on beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron to support comprehensive research on the Hunga event.
There have been significant developments in small modular reactor technologies in 2022. The International Atomic Energy Agency expects small modular reactors (SMRs) to make an important contribution to achieving global climate goals and energy supply security. But with more than 70 SMR designs under development in 18 countries – including innovative reactors that are yet to be licensed and novel methods of modular manufacturing that are new to the nuclear industry – widely deploying SMRs in time remains a tall task.
The Titan Krios cryo-electron microscope reveals the inner workings of life at the cellular level.
INVAP, the Argentinian advanced nuclear technology company, who designed and constructed the Open Pool Lightwater Reactor (OPAL) for ANSTO to replace the HIFAR reactor is celebrating 50 years of operations with the visit of a group of INVAP executives to ANSTO to celebrate their achievements and discuss future collaborations.
This COVIDSafe Plan describes the actions that ANSTO will take to keep our staff, contractors and visitors and platform users and collaborators safe and minimise the risk of the spread of COVID-19 infection.
ANSTO has put together a robust multidisciplinary approach to understanding the impacts of nanomaterials, investigating a common food additive, E171 titanium dioxide, used primarily as a colouring agent in everyday foods.
ANSTO contributes to major study on global warming by measuring methane and carbon monoxide trapped in ice.
Environmental scientist with a passion for fieldwork and a lifelong commitment to scientific excellence
ANSTO has produced a comprehensive report for the NSW Department of Planning and Environment that represents a significant scientific investigation of the connections, pathways and processes of water loss from the Thirlmere Lakes system.
A collaboration of scientists from RMIT, ANSTO and the CSIRO has published pioneering research that brings new insights into intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions (IDPs)/ (IDRs) and how they behave under various physiological processes.
Phase contrast tomography shows great promise in early stages of study and is expected to be tested on first patients by 2020.
Access to a ‘window into the cell’ with University of Wollongong cryogenic electron microscope at ANSTO.
The Nobel Prizes for Physics, Chemistry and Medicine have been announced.
ANSTO is a unique national science organisation that began operating under its predecessor The Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) 70 years ago.
The nuclear analysis team at ANSTO recently had a significant role in the re-design and optimisation of a cold neutron source facility for the reactor, its installation and the subsequent restart after a six-month shutdown.
Publications, posters and conference presentations for fire impacts reconstructed from a southwest Australian stalagmite.
Pioneering work on materials for energy production, such as lithium ion batteries, has made ANSTO a centre of specialist capabilities and expertise.
This COVIDSafe Plan describes the actions that ANSTO will take to keep our staff, contractors and visitors safe and minimise the risk of the spread of COVID-19 infection.
ANSTO scientist, Dr Klaus Wilcken of the Centre for Accelerator Science, used cosmogenic nuclide dating to determine the ages of layered sand and gravel samples, in which seven footprints of the flightless bird, the moa, were found on the South Island in New Zealand in 2019.
