The Advanced Diffraction and Scattering beamlines (ADS-1 and ADS-2) are two independently operating, experimentally flexible beamlines that will use high-energy X-ray diffraction and imaging to characterise the structures of new materials and minerals.

Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis (ERDA) is used principally as a method for measuring hydrogen in thin layers, and in the near-surface region of materials.

ANSTO has agreed to participate in an Australian trial of a review of research infrastructure access proposals in which applicants remain anonymous to aid the removal of structural barriers to the career progression of Women in STEM.

In this top secret mission, you program your EV3 to complete several space challenges. As this is a beginners’ course, our facilitator can adjust the programming from simple to advance throughout the day.

ANSTO's OPAL reactor is one of the world's most advanced and reliable research reactors today. To ensure we can continue operating OPAL safely and reliably and maximise utilisation, ANSTO must regularly carry out maintenance and upgrades.

ANSTO will make an application to the independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, to vary its license for its Interim Waste Store. The original operating license was approved in 2015, enabling the facility to hold what is called a TN-81 cask of intermediate-level radioactive waste that was safely repatriated from France in 2015.

Researchers from ANSTO and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory have uncovered the likely mineral composition of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, revealing a world of exotic organic crystals unlike any found on Earth.

ANSTO has played a formative role and continues to make important contributions using nuclear and isotopic techniques to understand past climates and patterns of change, maintain water resource sustainability and provide insights into the impact of contaminate in the environment.

Samples on the X-ray fluorescence microscopy beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.

Beamtime Guide on the X-ray Fluorescence Microscopy beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.

Two Australian science teachers will have the chance to participate in a special two-week summer school at the Large Hadron Collider in July 2025.

Principal Technical Consultant Michael Druce shares some personal insights on the design and construction of ANSTO's nuclear medicine facility.
