Moving earth in the search for dark matter: laboratory construction underway at mine site.

With a well-established portfolio of nuclear research and the operation of Australia's only nuclear reactor OPAL, ANSTO scientists conduct both fundamental and applied research on fuel for current, advanced, and future nuclear technology systems.

ANSTO has provided supporting experimental evidence of a highly unusual quantum state, a quantum spin liquid (QSL), in a two-dimensional material.

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.

Researchers from ANSTO and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory have uncovered the likely mineral composition of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, revealing a world of exotic organic crystals unlike any found on Earth.

In a world-first study, Australian environmental scientists have used cave stalagmites as a record of groundwater replenishment over time, that showed the current level of rainfall recharging groundwater in southwest WA is at its lowest for at least the last 800 years.

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

PNG researcher provides a progress update on an aquaculture project to improve the industry and benefit the local population

ANSTO is working with academic and industry partners on the development of multiscale numerical simulations of Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) 3D printing.

Sri Lankan students took part in an innovative hackathon to develop novel solutions to a wastewater runoff problem from reverse osmosis water treatment plants.

ANSTO is seeking nominations for the ANSTO Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Thesis Medal.

Unique opportunity to contribute to the long term conservation of Australia’s most iconic landmark: The Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Study helps make carbon dating a more accurate chronological tool.

A lesson in Science and Sustainability.

Outstanding individuals and teams have been recognised for their outstanding work, innovation, excellence in the 2025 ANSTO Awards. 

This program explores the mechanism and outcome of the interaction of radiation on biological systems in order to improve our understanding of the impact of radiation on the brain, optimise radiotherapy and develop mitigation strategies for space travellers.
