ANSTO has contributed to a recent publication in Nature Communications Biology that represents a landmark achievement in structural biology, an understanding of protein regulation mechanisms in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), a global health threat.

Kowari, a residual stress diffractometer, can be used for ‘strain scanning’ of large engineering components as large as 1000 kilograms.

China’s vertical sandstone pillars studied using nuclear techniques

Researchers from Murdoch University and associated collaborators are using ANSTO’s unique nuclear capabilities to gain detailed information about how wheat crops take in administered micronutrients to maximise their efficient use.

Retrieving an Antarctic ice core more than a million years old presents challenges and opportunities.

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.

The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) has joined a team, lead by the US Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), to install a high resolution monitoring system at ANSTO’s medical isotope production facility in Lucas Heights, Australia.

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.

Research reveals that strong westerly winds weaken the Southern Ocean’s ability to store carbon and thereby contribute to faster accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere

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

Designed for those working predominantly with unsealed radioactive sources, typically in a research, radiopharmaceutical or hospital environment. ANSTO is a recognised leader in radiation safety training, delivering industry and regulator-approved courses including S8, S10, S12 & S36.

A new study by researchers from Curtin University using the infrared (IR) and X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron has provided a better understanding of the chemical and elemental composition of latent fingermarks.
