Stage 1 of the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory was officially opened today. It will be home to multi-disciplinary scientists from five research partners who help us understand dark matter.

ANSTO concluded an eventful National Science Week with a series of events celebrating how nuclear science and technology contributes to knowledge and progress.

ANSTO has contributed to a large international study which decodes a fundamental process in Earth’s history and provides guidelines regarding the types of research questions that palaeontologists can investigate using marine fossils.

Challenge your understanding of nuclear science and technology with fun secondary school activities, exciting competitions and unique tours of our facilities.

ANSTO can analyse minute amounts of organic or inorganic matter embedded in a complex material

Virtual activities celebrating the benefits of nuclear science and technology held for National Science Week

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.

The BRIGHT Nanoprobe beamline provides a unique facility capable of spectroscopic and full-field imaging. NANO will undertake high-resolution elemental mapping and ptychographic coherent diffraction imaging. Elemental mapping and XANES studies (after DCM upgrade) will be possible at sub-100 nm resolution, with structural features able to be studied down to 15 nm using ptychography.

ANSTO is proud to announce that a license has been issued by the Therapeutic Goods Administration to produce Lutetium-177 (Lu-177) for use in clinical trials.

ANSTO’s user office in Melbourne offers access to the Australian Synchrotron, a world-class research facility with over 4,000 user visits per year. ANSTO seeks collaboration and partnerships with research organisations, scientific users and commercial users.

Research will change understanding of Australian Aboriginal rock art found in rock shelters of the Kimberley and its relationship to a changing landscape

Meeting of minds about potential next-generation cancer treatment for Australians

Lutetium-177 used for advanced prostate cancer

Researchers have demonstrated a solar-driven approach to convert glycerol, a low-value by-product of biodiesel production, into hydrogen and higher-value chemicals

The OPAL research reactor's design and integrated safety features mean it is extremely safe; a fact confirmed by independent analysis.

Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is an ultra-sensitive analytical technique based on the use of an ion accelerator as a powerful mass spectrometer.

This COVIDSafe Plan describes the actions that ANSTO will take to keep our staff, contractors and visitors safe and minimise the risk of the spread of COVID-19 infection.
