Scientists at ANSTO characterise structures with atomic detail using probes such as x-rays, electrons, neutrons and ions.

CORIS360® GNI images gamma-ray and thermal neutron radiation sources, delivering an unprecedented ability to detect, localise, and identify nuclear materials.

Griffith University researchers are conducting an experiment at ANSTO that will test a revolutionary physics theory that time reversal symmetry-breaking by neutrinos might cause a time dilation at the quantum scale.

As blood breaks down in the skin tissue, the colour of a bruise changes with time. As such, it may be used to find out information about the age of the bruise and hence a timeframe of when the incident that caused the mark took place.

The design and implementation of alternative energy sources is one of the greatest scientific and social challenges of our time.

Australasia is home to some of the oldest rock art motifs in the world. In tropical latitudes, due to climate change, the rock art deterioration is accelerating.

ANSTO is committed to monitoring its environmental performance and providing the community with accurate information about it. We also publish live meteorological data from our 49m Lucas Heights weather tower every 15 minutes.

You may be confident about the major crystallographic phases of your ore body – but what about those minor phases that can affect processing or cause long-term problems with remediation?

The Public Interest Disclosure Act 2013 aims to promote integrity and accountability in the Australian Public Sector by encouraging the disclosure of information about actual or suspected wrongdoing, protecting people who make disclosures and ensuring that disclosures are properly investigated and dealt with.

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

Developed by ANSTO’s predecessor the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (known as the AAEC) in the late 1960s, the Technetium-99m Generator revolutionised nuclear medicine imaging in Australia by enabling imaging procedures to be performed not only in major capital cities but throughout regional and rural Australia.

Bushfires heat soil to extreme temperatures and this causes oxidation of chromium to a highly toxic and carcinogenic form.
