Electron and X-ray diffraction techniques provide insights into material damage under stress-strain conditions.

Dr Rezwanul Haque, now a senior lecturer at the University of the Sunshine Coast, received a national Young Scientist Award for his earlier research using nuclear techniques at ANSTO’s Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering to find cracks and signs of stress in riveted joints in sheet metal in car bodies.

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.

Australasia is home to some of the oldest rock art motifs in the world. In tropical latitudes, due to climate change, the rock art deterioration is accelerating.

The Advanced Diffraction and Scattering beamlines (ADS-1 and ADS-2) are two independently operating, experimentally flexible beamlines that will use high-energy X-ray diffraction and imaging to characterise the structures of new materials and minerals.

Contributing to research that strengthens the defence of Australia

Following a decade of imaging to support research and clinical trials at ANSTO and the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre at Camperdown, two PET scanners have been transferred to the University of Wollongong.

In partnership with the Australian Museum as part of National Science Week explore the 2020 hackathon theme of Deep Blue: Innovation for the future of our oceans

The Australian led regional cancer care project in medical physics held its first regional training course in Malaysia to progress Rays of Hope.

Dr Anna Paradowska has been appointed as a Conjoint Professor of Practice in Advanced Structural Materials at the University of Sydney.

Challenge your understanding of nuclear science and technology with fun secondary school activities, exciting competitions and unique tours of our facilities.

ANSTO's OPAL reactor is one of the world's most advanced and reliable research reactors today. To ensure we can continue operating OPAL safely and reliably and maximise utilisation, ANSTO must regularly carry out maintenance and upgrades.

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

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.

ANSTO Big Ideas encourages students to creatively communicate the work of an Australian scientist, and explain how their work has inspired them to come up with a Big Idea to make our world a better place. This competition is intended to engage and support Australian students in years 7-10 in Science and encourage them to pursue studies and careers in STEM.
