Neutron Capture Enhanced Particle Therapy developed at ANSTO.

ANSTO provides a range of capabilities using neutrons, X-rays and infrared radiation to study the solids, liquids and gases that might be found in materials in our solar system and beyond.

With all excavation completed and rock removed from the underground site, the physics lab will now be built within the caverns of the Stawell Mines site.

In a world-first study, Australian environmental scientists have used cave stalagmites as a record of groundwater replenishment over time, that showed the current level of rainfall recharging groundwater in southwest WA is at its lowest for at least the last 800 years.

Phenomenon predicted by Nobel Prize recipient

Physicist and cancer research Dr Mitra Safavi-Naeini, Macromolecular crystallography beamline scientist Dr Eleanor Campbell and Engineering Support Workshop Manager Bianca Shepherd have been chosen by Science and Technology Australia as the next Superstars of STEM

Potential new treatments and tools for depression under development.

ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron has been working on an initiative that could substantially improve radiotherapy treatment for cancer patients. 

Over the last decades, neutron, photon, and ion beams have been established as an innovative and attractive investigative approach to characterise cultural-heritage materials.

A radiation sensor designed and built by Western Australian high school students has been tested on an ANSTO ion beam, ahead of its trip to the International Space Station later this year.  The Binary Space Program is a research group at Curtin University that, in 2021, designed, built and flew Western Australia's very first homegrown satellite, Binar.
