ANSTO’s Innovation Precinct welcomes NSW Government’s $12.5 commitment funding.

ANSTO showcased its significant contribution to security, safety, and public health during a visit of the Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi, Minister for Industry and Science Ed Husic, Australian Ambassador to Austria Richard Sinclair and Ambassador for Arms Control and Counter-Proliferation Ian Biggs and other dignitaries at the weekend.

(ANSTO) has welcomed the launch of the new National Science Statement and revitalised National Science and Research Priorities by Minister for Industry and Science, The Hon Ed Husic MP and Australia’s Chief Scientist, Dr Cathy Foley AO PSM.

ANSTO today welcomed a significant Federal Government funding allocation to further safeguard the production of life-saving nuclear medicines in Australia.

The most important data from NASA’s first crewed Artemis mission may not be its photographs, but the radiation measurements that will shape how humans work and survive beyond travel farther from Earth’s magnetic shelter safely.

New high energy ion microprobe beamline supports space research on the effects of radiation on astronauts.

ANSTO is coordinating and facilitating a new cycle of Australian project proposals for the Regional Cooperative Agreement (RCA).

ANSTO welcomes the recent announcement that the inaugural CEO for the Australian Radioactive Waste Agency (ARWA) has been appointed, following a global search. Mr Sam Usher will lead ARWA and comes to the role with almost three decades of experience in the nuclear industry. 

ANSTO is taking its innovative ANSTO Synroc® and CORIS360® technologies to the world stage at the Waste Management Symposia 2024 in Phoenix, Arizona USA this week (10 – 14 March 2024). Joining over 45 other countries and around 3,000 attendees, an Australian Government contingent comprising of ANSTO and the Australian Radioactive Waste Agency is in attendance to showcase Australia’s extensive radioactive waste management capabilities.

$80.2 million in new funding to expand the research capabilities of the Australian Synchrotron.

Over the last decades, neutron, photon, and ion beams have been established as an innovative and attractive investigative approach to characterise cultural-heritage materials.

When an energetic ion beam hits a sample it will interact with the atoms through a number of very complex interactions. By detecting and measuring the reaction products resulting from the various interactions and their intensities, you can obtain quantitative data on the sample's constituent elements and their spatial distribution.
