Pioneering techniques advance understanding of metals under extreme conditions
Role at ANSTO
What are radioisotopes?
Radioisotopes are widely used in medicine, industry, and scientific research. New applications for radioisotopes are constantly being developed.
Explaining glaciers of solid methane and nitrogen on Pluto
Research reports for the first time how solid methane and nitrogen expand in response to temperature changes and resolves an historic ambiguity relating to the structure of nitrogen.
Revealing the 'hidden half' of grain using imaging at ANSTO's Australian Synchrotron to benefit Australian agriculture
Professor of Soil Science at The University of Queensland, Peter Kopittke and partner investigator Prof Enzo Lombi of the University of SA are very optimistic about the use of a new synchrotron-based imaging technique that captures in 3D the complex interaction of soil and root.

ANSTO's X-ray techniques support improvements in solar
Advanced X-ray techniques have revealed new structural details about the specific arrangement of atoms in conjugated polymers, an important class of materials that are used in LEDs, organic solar cells, transistors, sensors and thermoelectric power devices.
Graduate Profile – Vienna Wong
PhD candidate Vienna Wong is using her FutureNow Scholarship to research ultra-high temperature ceramics, which are emerging materials for extreme environments.
Aboriginal inhabitants of Madjedbebe, northern Australia used different ways to adapt to environmental change
ANSTO has contributed to research that indicated that Aboriginal people had a broad diet and intensive plant processing technologies, allowing them to respond to changes in climate, sea level and vegetation over the last ca. 65,000 years.
Understanding how ventilation might impact blood flow in ventilated preterm babies
Hudson Institute of Medical Research and Monash University researchers used synchrotron X-rays produce powerful visualisation of video of changes to blood flow to brain during ventilation in large preterm clinical models.
The composition and manufacturing history of African swords revealed
ANSTO scientists were members of an inter-disciplinary team led by the University of Sydney, who examined six 19th century West African swords, using a non-invasive multi-methodological approach to reveal the composition and manufacturing history of the iron implements.
