Professor of Soil Science at The University of Queensland, Peter Kopittke and partner investigator Prof Enzo Lombi of the University of SA are very optimistic about the use of a new synchrotron-based imaging technique that captures in 3D the complex interaction of soil and root.

Dr Andrew Smith has just finished collecting ice cores and snow samples on the summit of Law Dome in Antarctica,

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.

ANSTO has produced a comprehensive report for the NSW Department of Planning and Environment that represents a significant scientific investigation of the connections, pathways and processes of water loss from the Thirlmere Lakes system.

The complex engineering of scientific instruments is explored in this 'behind the scenes' look at the installation of frontends for two new beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron.

A study has provided insight into copper sulfate pentahydrate and could give clues to how other hydrated minerals change under the pressures within planetary environments

Lake sediments as environmental archives used in compilation of data.

The ARC Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Green Electrochemical Transformation of Carbon Dioxide, GETCO2, will support innovative approaches to carbon capture.

The Nobel Prizes for Physics, Chemistry and Medicine have been announced. 

Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) is a highly sensitive method of quantitative elemental analysis. There is a wide range of potential applications for neutron irradiations.

Advanced imaging reveals unusual, unseen patterns in seabird feathers.

From June to August we invited primary schools in Greater Sydney/Illawarra and Melbourne to participate in our 2019 Shorebirds Competition. Students in Years 3 to 6 were asked to create a public awareness poster for a threatened shorebird found in Australia.
