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.
Specialist expertise and capabilities at ANSTO enable an understanding and improvement of current and advanced nuclear fuel materials
With a well-established portfolio of nuclear research and the operation of Australia's only nuclear reactor OPAL, ANSTO scientists conduct both fundamental and applied research on fuel for current, advanced, and future nuclear technology systems.
Mitigation and Optimisation of Radiation Responses
This program explores the mechanism and outcome of the interaction of radiation on biological systems in order to improve our understanding of the impact of radiation on the brain, optimise radiotherapy and develop mitigation strategies for space travellers.
Data Analysis
Below lists some useful programs for data reduction, search matching, analysis and structure visualisation of diffraction data.
Advanced nuclear waste forms
A closer look at the scientific power of nuclear and accelerator techniques
In Part 2 of our series exploring the world of nuclear science and technology at ANSTO, we share more detailed information about the nuclear scientist’s toolkit.
Infrared microspectroscopy
The Infrared Microspectroscopy beamline combines the high brilliance and collimation of the synchrotron beam through a Bruker V80v Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and into a Hyperion 3000 IR microscope to reach high signal-to-noise ratios at diffraction limited spatial resolutions between 3-8 μm.
CORIS360® case studies
Bringing radiochemistry to life
Seeing inside an advanced material
Synchrotron technique clarifies the location of calcium in a promising material with a relatively high superconducting transition temperature.
Understanding organic solar cells
The design and implementation of alternative energy sources is one of the greatest scientific and social challenges of our time.
CORIS360® Industry Applications
It is critical across many industries to identify and locate sources of radiation accurately and quickly. By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making across many industry settings.
Better understanding of light harvesting may benefit agriculture
The 2025 ANSTO Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Medal
ANSTO is seeking nominations for the ANSTO Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Thesis Medal.
Soft x-ray spectroscopy
Soft x-rays are generally understood to be x-rays in the energy range 100-3,000 eV. They have insufficient energy to penetrate the beryllium window of a hard x-ray beamline but have energies higher than that of extreme ultraviolet light.
