Today we celebrate 65 years since the official opening of Australia’s first nuclear research reactor in 1958
ANSTO is celebrating the official opening of HIFAR, Australia’s first nuclear reactor, sixty-five years ago.
Synchrotron-studied protein sheds light on Parkinson’s, stomach cancer, melanoma
Collaboration across the Tasman has enabled Australian and New Zealand researchers and scientists to shed light on a protein involved in diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, gastric cancer and melanoma.
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.
Brothers produce excellent scientific results with improvements to silicon
New Paper shows that Deuteration can improve Photovoltaic Devices
Experimental evidence of quantum spin liquid
Researchers use Kitaev theoretical model to explain unusual phenomenon in two-dimensional material.
First light achieved for new micro-computed tomography beamline under Project BRIGHT
Project Bright, the construction of eight new beamlines at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron has reached a milestone by achieving ‘First Light’ for the new micro-computed tomography (MCT) beamline in late NovembeR.

Training session highlighted an approach to calculate the ingested dose of radionuclides in seafood
Dr Mathew Johansen, an environmental scientist at ANSTO, presented in an online IAEA training workshop on Advanced Topics in Radiochemistry Techniques this week.
Nuclear techniques reveal inner structure of iron meteorities non-invasively
Approach to Improve additive manufacturing processes developed
Collaborative research predicted the distortion and performance of metal parts made by laser deposition.
Radiocarbon dating and stable isotope analysis contribute to Antarctic research
Study shows for the first time that vegetation in the Windmill Islands, East Antarctica is changing rapidly in response to a drying climate.
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.
Nanoprobe beamline (NANO) - under construction
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.
2019 Shorebirds Competition Summary and Results
From June to August we invited primary schools in Greater Sydney/Illawarra and Melbourne to participate in our 2019 Shorebirds Competition. Students in Years 3 to 6 were asked to create a public awareness poster for a threatened shorebird found in Australia.
