Using isotopes to understand saltwater intrusion of Rottnest Island groundwater

Over 250 students took part in ANSTO's annual Science and Engineering Challenge with an all-girl school taking top honours.

Research to improve knowledge of natural variability in rainfall and recharge by monitoring hydrological processes in key regions and reconstruct water recharge history.

ANSTO has been awarded a Community Recognition Statement from the NSW State Parliament for hosting an event to launch a new Dharawal language learning resource for preschool and primary-aged students.

Aussie development offering significant benefits to the energy industry.

A large team of ANSTO scientists in collaboration with University of Wollongong researchers has developed a new hybrid technique that enhances the effectiveness of a cutting-edge form of radiation therapy for advanced cancer.

ANSTO is responsible for the Little Forest Legacy Site (LFLS) located within the ANSTO Buffer Zone boundary. This site, formerly known as the Little Forest Burial Ground (LFBG), was used by the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) during the 1960’s to dispose of waste containing low levels of radioactivity and beryllium oxide (non-radioactive) in a series of shallow trenches. There has been regular monitoring of the site since 1966 and the results have been reported in ANSTO’s environmental monitoring reports.

Charcoal particles from recent bushfires in NSW were carried 50 kilometres by the wind, which has significance for fire history reconstruction.

Health researchers have developed a new method for producing PET radiotracers.
