ANSTO expert in molecular imaging contributed to international workshop.
Advanced refrigeration technology on the horizon
Atomic mechanism produces colossal cooling effect in new class of materials .
Elusive class of compounds found
Neutron scattering has contributed to a 'tour de force' of chemistry led by Monash University.
Food science: Insight into emulsions
Neutron scattering techniques help characterise the structure of a particle based emulsifier
Queensland reef scientist wins new award for erosion research
Today Dr Jenine McCutcheon from the University of Queensland’s School of Earth and Environmental Sciences has been recognised for her outstanding research with the Australian Synchrotron's Stephen Wilkins Medal.
Nuclear power technology explored
ANSTO shared expertise on next-generation reactors and nuclear power with sustainable energy experts at the Australian Academy of Science symposium in May.
Unusual state of matter in new material holds promise for transformative quantum technologies
ANSTO has provided supporting experimental evidence of a highly unusual quantum state, a quantum spin liquid (QSL), in a two-dimensional material.

The evolution of molten salt reactors
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.
Fine particle pollution peaks during bushfires
Recent catastrophic Australian bushfires produced extremely high levels of fine particle pollution.
Australia’s Nuclear Age Celebrates 70 Years
Advanced materials
Stable, highly conductive 2D nanosheets of boron nitride promising new material.
Insights may lead to design and development of superior metallic alloys
Update on PNG aquaculture project to improve the industry and benefit the local population
PNG researcher provides a progress update on an aquaculture project to improve the industry and benefit the local population
Investigating a prospective light-weight fire retardant material with superior properties
Scientists from UNSW and ANSTO have characterised the structure of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, carbonites, and nitrides (MXenes) materials, that could be used as a lightweight fire-retardant filler and in energy storage devices.
Understanding corrosion in concrete sewer pipes
Using neutron imaging techniques at ANSTO, researchers from Macquarie University have gained a better understanding of how corrosion forms and spreads through concrete that is commonly used in sewer pipes.
