The Australian Synchrotron provides funding support for successful beamtime applicants in the form of travel funding and/or onsite accommodation. Travel funds granted are to be used solely to cover the majority of the cost to travel to the AS facility. The User Office will book accommodation for interstate user groups at the onsite AS Guesthouse.

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.

The technique of using radiocarbon to establish the age of artefacts and other samples as well as to provide insights on climate, has just been updated with the publication of the new radiocarbon curves.
