ANSTO provides a range of capabilities using neutrons, X-rays and infrared radiation to study the solids, liquids and gases that might be found in materials in our solar system and beyond.

Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science provided strong evidence that some culturally significant trees on Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) have persisted for up to more than 500 years

With world-class experts in groundwater and major contributions in this area over two decades, ANSTO completed a major project report on Improving groundwater sustainability and renewability using isotope hydrochemistry in NSW for the Department of Planning and Environment (NSW) and National Water Grid earlier in the year.

Whilst at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron today, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced new funding for the Australian Precision Medicine Enterprise (APME) Project. The Australian Government will contribute $23m in grant funding under the Manufacturing Collaboration Stream of the Modern Manufacturing Initiative (MMI) towards the $71.2m project.

Retrieving an Antarctic ice core more than a million years old presents challenges and opportunities.

ANSTO’s own meteorite hunter, who is also a planetary scientist and instrument scientist Dr Helen Brand took part in an expedition led by Professor Andy Tomkins of Monash University that has found the largest meteorite strewn field in Australia since the famous Murchison meteorite event in 1969.

Con Lyras, Group Executive Capital Programs & Chief Engineer has been made a fellow of the Institute of Engineers Australia.

ANSTO is working with BAE Systems Maritime Australia, and the University of Wollongong under the auspices of the DMTC Ltd. on the development of multiphysics numerical simulations capable of capturing thermo-physical, thermo-metallurgical and thermo-mechanical processes taking place during welding.

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.

The new Micro Computed Tomography (MCT) beamline is the first instrument to become operational as part of the $94 million Project BRIGHT program, which will see the completion of eight new beamlines at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron.
