Nuclear propulsion systems
ANSTO researchers are investigating nuclear propulsion systems for applications on the sea and in space.
Surfing at the atomic scale: ANSTO scientists confirm experimentally new fundamental law for liquids
The first experimental evidence to validate a newly published universal law that provides insights into the complex energy states for liquids has been found using an advanced nuclear technique at ANSTO.
An investigation of residual stresses in insulated rail joints
Deciphering the complex molecular activity that leads to cell death
Research on the mechanism of cell death has insights to bring progress on neurodegenerative diseases and plant biosecurity.
Understanding fine particle pollution
Thirty years of ANSTO's unique capability in monitoring fine particle pollution provides insight on bushfire smoke.
Anonymised Review

Nuclear power technologies
Nuclear power is used as a reliable and clean energy solution in most OECD countries and many other parts of the world. Although it is banned in Australia, a number of government reviews are looking at current prohibitions on nuclear power.
High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography Beamline (MX3)
The High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography beamline will enable the study of very small (sub-5 micrometre) or weakly diffracting crystals, providing a state-of-the-art high-throughput facility for researchers. MX3 will be able to study the structures of large proteins and protein complexes for virology, drug design and industrial applications via goniometer mounted crystals, in-tray screening, or via serial crystallography methods.
Role at ANSTO
Specialist expertise and capabilities at ANSTO enable an understanding and improvement of current and advanced nuclear fuel materials
With a well-established portfolio of nuclear research and the operation of Australia's only nuclear reactor OPAL, ANSTO scientists conduct both fundamental and applied research on fuel for current, advanced, and future nuclear technology systems.
