CORIS360® GNI images gamma-ray and thermal neutron radiation sources, delivering an unprecedented ability to detect, localise, and identify nuclear materials.

ANSTO has supported research led by a University of Sydney team who gained insights into how oil molecules retain their ‘liquid-like’ properties when they are chemically attached as an extremely thin layer to solid surfaces.  

PHD student Dr Leonie van ‘t Hag has been awarded the prestigious 2017 ANSTO, Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Medal for her PhD thesis.

New research published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology shows that the next generation of lithium-sulphur (Li||S) batteries may be capable of being charged in less than five minutes, instead of several hours as is currently the case.

Investigations of various aspects of magnetism can be conducted on all neutron-scattering instruments at OPAL.

ANSTO offers a range of specialist capabilities in the area of food and food production that provide insights other approaches cannot.

The THz/Far-IR Beamline couples the high brightness and collimation of a bend-magnet synchrotron radiation to a Bruker IFS125HR spectrometer providing high-resolution spectra (0.00096 cm-1) with signal to noise ratio superior to that of thermal sources up to 1350 cm-1 for gas-phase applications; the beamline also delivers signal to noise ratio superior to that of thermal sources up to 350 cm-1 for condensed phase samples.
