Nine PhD students are taking part in a rare opportunity to deliver an innovative solution to a real-world challenge for an industry partner in ANSTO’s National Graduate Innovation Forum in association with the Australian Council of Deans of Science and the Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering.

Since 1962, the United Uranium Scholarship has helped promising young scientists in the field of nuclear energy extend their knowledge and expertise. In 2022, scholarships were awarded to several ANSTO researchers, including Phil Sutton.

With enhanced submicron spatial resolution, speed and contrast, the Micro-Computed Tomography beamline opens a window on the micron-scale 3D structure of a wide range of samples relevant to many areas of science including life sciences, materials engineering, anthropology, palaeontology and geology. MCT will be able to undertake high-speed and high-throughput studies, as well as provide a range of phase-contrast imaging modalities.

A team of Melbourne researchers and international partners from Italian Instituto Nazionale de Fisica Nucleare (INFN) and CERN, who are developing radiation-hardened semiconductor chips, used the unique state-of-art high energy ion microprobe on the SIRIUS ion accelerator at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science to test a prototype radiation-resistant computer chip

Four annual awards in neutron scattering were announced at Australian Neutron Beam Users Group (ANBUG) and AINSE Neutron Scattering Symposium (AANSS) to individuals with strong links to ANSTO

New researcher joins human health team to focus on role of acquired immunity in preventing disease

ANSTO participation in ARC on Intelligent Robotic Systems for Real-time Asset Management has potential benefit in the management of infrastructure and assets

Hot Isostatic Pressing supports advanced manufacturing by increasing a material's density and reducing porosity. This capability complements ANSTO’s extensive suite of instruments and techniques for characterising materials and final products.

ANSTO is a highly regulated organisation. Our governance system and processes provide critical guidance to effectively manage ANSTO’s activities. This section outlines the processes and systems that are in place to provide assurance to Government, our stakeholders and the community that we are working within our regulated and mandated requirements.

ANSTO is Australia’s nuclear centre of excellence. It has a mandated role to advise the Australian Government on all nuclear and science technology matters.

Chemical deuteration involves deuterating whole molecules or building blocks for the synthesis of a desired molecule by exposing them to heavy water (deuterium oxide) at high temperatures and pressures in the presence of a catalyst. If required, compounds can then be synthesised from the deuterated building blocks using organic chemistry techniques.

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.
