Ultra-thin lithium strips show great promise as anode material for enhanced lithium ion batteries
Chinese researchers have eveloped a novel strategy for the scalable production of high-performance, thin, and free-standing lithium anodes for lithium-ion batteries with enhanced cycling stability and electrochemical properties.
Last meal reveals eating habits of Australian sauropod
International research led by Curtin University and supported by ANSTO, has identified and studied the first sauropod dinosaur gut contents found anywhere in the world. The stomach content was preserved with a reasonably complete skeleton of the Australian Cretaceous species Diamantinasaurus matildae found in Winton Queensland.
Detecting nuclear material
The new gamma imaging technology developed at ANSTO has been used to detect the presence and location of nuclear material for the International Partnership for Nuclear Disarmament Verification.

Role of the translocator protein in mitigating stress
TSPO is a protein that is associated with crucial cellular functions including the activity of the mitochondria. A mouse model in which the TSPO (18 kDa) is knocked out was developed at ANSTO in collaboration with The University of Sydney.
Radiocarbon dating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and histories
In this workbook, students will:
- learn about radiocarbon dating and its applications to cultural heritage materials.
- analyse and interpret different texts and videos to better understand Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
- build literacy and numeracy capabilities using cloze passages, writing a glossary, interpreting graphs, answering comprehension questions, and making a timeline and a map to summarise the research stories.
ANSTO shares specialist expertise
Hosts workshop on nuclear forensics for IAEA members.
