ANSTO's Graduate Program develops the next generation of Australian business and science leaders, by providing the best and brightest postgraduate students with a two-year rotation cycle, tailored to match your talents, goals and interests.
Radioactive radon gas is a decay product of uranium and thorium, which are found naturally in rocks, soil and building materials. Radon is a significant component of background radiation and can accumulate in poorly ventilated indoor environments. In this data set, we investigated the effect of charging a balloon, which was then hung in an enclosed space, on its level of radioactivity. Students will write a hypothesis, graph data, write a conclusion and use provided information to answer questions about radioactivity and radon, experimental design, accuracy, validity and reliability.

Sample environment types that are available on the Powder Diffraction beamline.
New infrared imaging technique reveals molecular orientation of proteins in silk fibres
Stable, highly conductive 2D nanosheets of boron nitride promising new material.
The instrument is designed to measure inelastic neutron scattering, or do neutron spectroscopy.
NSTO’S major project to introduce eight new beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron has reached a milestone with the delivery of ‘first light’ to the new MEX-1 beamline.
As a new or returning user, there are certain requirements that must be completed to ensure that your beamtime at the Australian Synchrotron runs smoothly.
Approximately 200 external users access the accelerators through the merit-based system, in-kind partnerships and pay for service arrangements,
The Centre for Accelerator Science operates four ion accelerators with 11 on sources and 13 beamlines
Radionuclides have been used routinely in medicine for more than 60 years. Nuclear medicine uses radiation to provide information about the functioning of a person's specific organs to diagnose or treat disease. The radionuclides used in medicine have half-lives ranging from a few minutes to several days in order to minimise the radiation dose the patient receives. For three unknown medical radionuclides, students will graph their decay over time, use the graph to calculate their half-life, and determine the identify and use of each radionuclide using background information provided.
