ANSTO environmental scientists have alerted the scientific community of the critical need to monitor changes to ice containing potential nuclear fallout that reached Antarctica from 20th century atmospheric weapons testing.

Applications are now being accepted for the Industry foundations Scholarship.

Guide to successful proposals and experiments at the Powder Diffraction beamline.

International interest is building in Australia’s new multi-million-dollar radioactive waste processing facility at the Sydney campus of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).

On the international stage amongst the leading nuclear nations of the world, Australians hold its own. This status has been earned by ANSTO’s seventy-year history of safe nuclear operations, the application of nuclear science and technology to benefit society and nuclear stewardship role in Australia.

When an energetic ion beam hits a sample it will interact with the atoms through a number of very complex interactions. By detecting and measuring the reaction products resulting from the various interactions and their intensities, you can obtain quantitative data on the sample's constituent elements and their spatial distribution.

Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.

Researchers and industry partners from UNSW Australia, the Australian Centre for Nanomedicine, Children’s Cancer Institute and Inventia Life Sciences Pty Ltd have been awarded the 2021 ANSTO Eureka Prize for Innovative Use of Technology for their method to rapidly-produce 3D cell structures

ANSTO recognised the contribution of individuals and teams to nuclear science and technology at the 2023 ANSTO Awards Ceremony held on 25 July.

Research to assess the impact of recent landscape change by measuring fundamental geomorphic processes that are the result of long-term landscape evolution.

3D models of multilayered structures on engineering scale from nanoscale damage profiles.

Federal Parliament’s House Standing Committee on the Environment and Energy has presented its report, arising from its Inquiry into the prerequisites for nuclear energy in Australia today.

Currently ANSTO partners with the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to operate the Australian GNIP stations with samples analysed at ANSTO’s Environmental Isotope Laboratories in Sydney.
