Jarosite on Earth and Mars
Useful in some mineral processes but a major problem in others, jarosite may be the key to unlocking the geological history and environmental context of water on Mars.
Deforestation not always bad news for wetlands
Role at ANSTO
Building knowledge of changes in uranium chemistry
A new systematic investigation of the origins of atomic structural distortions in compounds containing uranium has relevance for spent nuclear fuel .
Scanners to go to a new home after a decade of excellence in preclinical imaging research
Following a decade of imaging to support research and clinical trials at ANSTO and the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre at Camperdown, two PET scanners have been transferred to the University of Wollongong.

Understanding pollutants impact
Research highlights how biodistribution of a toxic substance essential to understand all exposure risks.
Symposium on advanced therapy
Science and medical experts meet in Adelaide to discuss great potential of particle therapy in Australia
Insights into Titan’s atmosphere
Terahertz/Far Infrared beamlines assisted investigation into possible composition of lower atmosphere of Saturn's moon Titan.
Space research enabled with new capability
New high energy ion microprobe beamline supports space research on the effects of radiation on astronauts.
Emu - High-Resolution Backscattering Spectrometer
Theinstrument is typically used to study diffusing water molecules or yet larger molecules like polymers or biological molecules. In addition, Emu can reveal quantum-mechanical tunnelling.
Publications
Publications and resources from the Powder Diffraction beamline.
High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography Beamline (MX3)
The High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography beamline will enable the study of very small (sub-5 micrometre) or weakly diffracting crystals, providing a state-of-the-art high-throughput facility for researchers. MX3 will be able to study the structures of large proteins and protein complexes for virology, drug design and industrial applications via goniometer mounted crystals, in-tray screening, or via serial crystallography methods.
Sharing expertise with regional neighbours
Participants undertook IAEA training hosted by Macquarie University and ANSTO on use of radionuclides for soil and water investigations.
Australian access to overseas synchrotrons
The International Synchrotron Access Program (ISAP) is administered by the Australian Synchrotron and is designed to assist Australian-based synchrotron users to access overseas synchrotron related facilities.
Innovative technology provides enhancement to advanced radiation therapy
Neutron Capture Enhanced Particle Therapy developed at ANSTO.
Evidence of spin nematic
Evidence for existence of a highly exotic and elusive state of matter, known as a magnetic ‘spin nematic’ phase in a natural mineral called linarite.
