Little forest legacy site
ANSTO is responsible for the Little Forest Legacy Site (LFLS) located within the ANSTO Buffer Zone boundary. This site, formerly known as the Little Forest Burial Ground (LFBG), was used by the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) during the 1960’s to dispose of waste containing low levels of radioactivity and beryllium oxide (non-radioactive) in a series of shallow trenches. There has been regular monitoring of the site since 1966 and the results have been reported in ANSTO’s environmental monitoring reports.
Initial findings from an IAEA project on the status of the medical physics profession in diagnostic radiology and image guided interventional procedures in the Asia–Pacific published
A research paper that shares early results from an IAEA funded project evaluates the state of medical physics in diagnostic radiology and image-guided procedures in the Asia-Pacific region has been published in Physical and Engineering Sciences in Medicine.
Improving the production of piezoelectric materials for naval sonar systems
Thales Australia, a key supplier to the Australian Defence Forces, provided an industrial challenge to National Graduate Innovation Forum participants relating to the production of piezoelectric ceramic components used in naval sonar arrays and systems.
New advanced material shows extraordinary stability over wide temperature range
Researchers from UNSW have found an extraordinary material that does expand or contract over an extremely wide temperature range and may be one of the most stable materials known.
Bragg Institute Advisory Committee meets
Investigating Ozone
Ozone in the upper atmosphere is a crucial shield of UV, but ozone at surface levels is a respiratory irritant and health hazard.
Students investigate surface-level ozone concentrations in the air around Liverpool, NSW, using descriptive statistical analysis, a univariate analysis and a bivariate analysis to explore the data. Students also investigate the relationship between ozone concentration and certain pollutant gases, as well as the effect of temperature.
Nuclear Materials Research and Technology
ANSTO addresses key scientific questions in the nuclear fuel cycle for both the current generation of nuclear reactors and future systems.
In this top secret mission, you program your EV3 to complete several space challenges. As this is a beginners’ course, our facilitator can adjust the programming from simple to advance throughout the day.

Radioactivity Measurement Standards
Radionuclide metrology is the technical function of measuring radioactivity of radionuclides.
Constructing the world's newest nuclear medicine manufacturing facility
Principal Technical Consultant Michael Druce shares some personal insights on the design and construction of ANSTO's nuclear medicine facility.
Advanced nuclear waste forms
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.
The power of deuteration brings insight for mRNA-based drug delivery and vaccines
The National Deuteration Facility is providing deuterated cholesterol, an essential ingredient in lipid nanoparticles for the delivery of vaccines using mRNA, to academic and industry partners.
Improving the identification of radiological and nuclear materials
Applications Open for the International Synchrotron Access Program (ISAP)
The International Synchrotron Access Program (ISAP) is administered by the Australian Synchrotron and is designed to assist Australian-based synchrotron users to access overseas synchrotron related facilities.
