Australian Centre for Neutorn Scattering - National Deuteration Facility Advisory Committee meets
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Centre for Acclerator Science operates accelerators that can be used for space radiation testing.
Principal Technical Consultant Michael Druce shares some personal insights on the design and construction of ANSTO's nuclear medicine facility.
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.
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 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.
Radionuclide metrology is the technical function of measuring radioactivity of radionuclides.
