The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.

The first National Graduate Innovation Forum will be held in November to connect PhD students with representatives from four of Australia’s leading industries to apply scientific thinking to current real-world challenges. 

You are invited to submit to the various awards from ANSTO, User Advisory Committee (UAC) and Australian Neutron Beam User Group (ANBUG). 

ANSTO is committed to monitoring its environmental performance and providing the community with accurate information about it. We also publish live meteorological data from our 49m Lucas Heights weather tower every 15 minutes.

ANSTO continually collects meteorological data from its 50-metre tower. A summary of ANSTO's climate statistics including temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and rainfall recorded at this location are provided below.

nandin is ANSTO’s Innovation Centre where science and technology entrepreneurs, startups and graduates meet industry expertise to experiment, co-create, innovate, and commercialise, creating new jobs in the high-growth industries of tomorrow.

ANSTO has released the Independent Safety Review of Building 23 - Nuclear medicine production facility.

Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.

The Macromolecular and Microfocus Crystallography beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron (MX1 and MX2) are general purpose crystallography instruments for determining chemical and biological structures.

The 6MV tandem accelerator, named SIRIUS, is instrumented with a wide range of AMS, IBA and ion irradiation facilities.  The three ion sources include hydrogen and helium sources, and a MC-SNICS sputter source for solid materials. 

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.

This science week ANSTO (August 10th - 18th) is running a classroom competition using the ANSTO Periodic Table and our new ANSTO XR app.
