Soft x-rays are generally understood to be x-rays in the energy range 100-3,000 eV. They have insufficient energy to penetrate the beryllium window of a hard x-ray beamline but have energies higher than that of extreme ultraviolet light.

Advanced nuclear reactors, such as molten salt-based reactors and very high-temperature reactors provide a viable option within a future mix of energy systems.

Environmental scientists at ANSTO have been undertaking research to gain a better understanding of the potential impact of contaminants on decommissioned offshore oil and gas infrastructure since 2017.

Science and medical experts meet in Adelaide to discuss great potential of particle therapy in Australia

ANSTO team earns top paper award from American Ceramic Society

A desire to give people around the world greater access to the benefits of nuclear medicine is behind Robert Raposio and his research into producing radioisotopes in more efficient, cheaper and sustainable ways.

An international team led by scientists at City University of Hong Kong has found flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) with one-dimensional channels that acts as a “molecular trapdoor” to selectively adsorb gases, such as carbon dioxide, in response to temperature and pressure changes.

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.

Scientists from UNSW and ANSTO have characterised the structure of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, carbonites, and nitrides (MXenes) materials, that could be used as a lightweight fire-retardant filler and in energy storage devices.
