Sharing expertise with regional neighbours
Participants undertook IAEA training hosted by Macquarie University and ANSTO on use of radionuclides for soil and water investigations.
Highlights - Aerosol Sampling
ANSTO has been tracking and publishing data on fine particle pollution from key sites around Australia, and internationally, for more than 20 years.
A natural radioactive tool for urban pollution studies
Medium Energy X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy Beamline (MEX-1 and MEX-2)
The Medium Energy- X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy beamlines provides access to XANES and EXAFS data from a bending magnet source, optimised for cutting-edge applications in biological, agricultural and environmental science in an energy range that is not currently available at the Australia Synchrotron.
Materials in extreme environments
Materials researchers focus on development, performance and in-service degradation of nickel-based superalloys, reinforced carbon-Carbon (C/C) composites, and ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC).
Materials in extreme environments
Material researchers at ANSTO use a range of in-house capabilities in the development, testing and characterisation of existing and emerging materials for extreme environments of the novel nuclear (fission/fusion) based energy-generation systems.
What one moon flyby can and cannot do, and what comes next (Part 2)
Dr Mitra Safavi Naeini continues her commentary of the radiation studies being undertaken in the Artemis II mission.
Glacial study grant includes ANSTO
ANSTO’s unique capabilities in cosmogenic nuclides included in glacial study grant.
Stable Isotope Ratios
Stable isotopes are high useful in investigations of environmental samples.
Reconstructing Australia’s fire history from cave stalagmites
Research is being undertaken through an Australian Research Council Discovery Project "Reconstructing Australia’s fire history from cave stalagmites", led by Professor Andy Baker at UNSW Sydney and Dr. Pauline Treble at ANSTO. The project aims to calibrate the fire-speleothem relationship and develop coupled fire and climate records for the last millennium in southwest Australia.
Environment Research and Technology
ANSTO conducts and enables research to address some of Australia’s and the world’s most challenging environmental problems.
ANSTO’s Dr Karina Meredith appointed to UN scientific panel on the effects of nuclear war
The panel will investigate a wide range of potential effects spanning radiological, environmental, climatic, agricultural, public health, and socio-economic impacts, through a scientifically rigorous and independent lens.
CORIS360® Industry Applications
It is critical across many industries to identify and locate sources of radiation accurately and quickly. By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making across many industry settings.
Reappointment of the Chief Executive Officer
ANSTO contributes to funded ARC Discovery and Linkage projects
Enhancing safety of trailer trucks among research projects
Dr. Qinfen Gu leads the Powder Diffraction beamline team at the Australian Synchrotron, ANSTO, and serves as an Honorary Principal Fellow in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Melbourne.
Public Interest Disclosure Scheme
The Public Interest Disclosure Act 2013 aims to promote integrity and accountability in the Australian Public Sector by encouraging the disclosure of information about actual or suspected wrongdoing, protecting people who make disclosures and ensuring that disclosures are properly investigated and dealt with.
Infrared microspectroscopy
The Infrared Microspectroscopy beamline combines the high brilliance and collimation of the synchrotron beam through a Bruker V80v Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and into a Hyperion 3000 IR microscope to reach high signal-to-noise ratios at diffraction limited spatial resolutions between 3-8 μm.
Aerosol Sampling Program
ANSTO plays a leading role in measuring and characterising fine particles from a range of locations around Australia and internationally.
