Advances in radon measurement technology by ANSTO researchers over the past decade have enabled the improved characterisation of the composition of pristine air masses that reach Antarctica.

Powder diffraction and X-ray fluorescence microscopy support investigation of pigments in rock art.

Fifteen neutron beam instruments are either operational or being commissioned at the new OPAL reactor. ANSTO expects to add more instruments in future. Other instruments and a suite of sample-environment equipment allows studies at different temperatures, pressures and magnetic fields.  Scientific references are available for most instruments.

Researchers led by the University of Bristol (UK) have identified a possible cause of SARS-CoV-2’s increased infectivity compared to SARS-CoV

Radiocarbon measurements at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science have supported research published that provided insights into what the environment was like for the Aboriginal artists who created rock art over intervals spanning 43,000 years.

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 is participating in a major project to learn more about an important component of the atmosphere, the hydroxyl radical.

Swinburne University of Technology is launching an Australian-first Aerostructures Innovation Research Hub (AIR Hub) with the support of $12 million in funding from the Victorian Government.

Researchers from the University of New South Wales have developed a new type of rechargeable battery that uses protons as charge carriers, offering a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries.

Groundwater experts from ANSTO and UNSW have led a collaboration of Australian and American researchers to analyse the composition of deep, very old groundwater and develop a new conceptual framework that describes the degradation of carbon over time in the subsurface.
