Advanced imaging techniques provide earliest evidence of fruit-eating by ancient bird
International palaeontologists have used advanced imaging techniques at ANSTO’S Australian Synchrotron to clarify the role that the earliest fruit-eating birds of the Cretaceous period may have had in helping fruit-producing plants to evolve.
Roadmap for future development of sovereign infrastructure, capabilities and expertise
ANSTO has a new roadmap for future development of its sovereign infrastructure, capabilities and expertise.
Australia supports Fiji-led IAEA RCA project to strengthen food security
Australia is supporting a new regional initiative led by Fiji in partnership with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) under the Regional Cooperative Agreement for Research, Development and Training Related to Nuclear Science and Technology for Asia and the Pacific (RCA) to strengthen food security across Asia and the Pacific using nuclear science and technology.
Quantum sensing exploits the most counterintuitive properties of quantum systems
Devices that use quantum sensors take advantage of quantum properties, unlike conventional instruments that apply classical physics in their operation.
Role at ANSTO
