Research brings a better understanding of the stability of very old groundwater
Groundwater experts from ANSTO and UNSW have led a collaboration of Australian and American researchers to analyse the composition of deep, very old groundwater and develop a new conceptual framework that describes the degradation of carbon over time in the subsurface.
Research collaborator earns distinguished scholarship for work on ultra-low friction materials
Zachary Di Pietro, a PhD candidate at the University of Newcastle and AINSE Postgraduate Research Award recipient, has received the 2025 Ezio Rizzardo Polymer Scholarship from the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences & Engineering for his innovative work on synthesising and characterising polymer brushes for ultra-low friction surface applications.
Our understanding of the atom powers ANSTO's nuclear and accelerator research techniques
Scientists at ANSTO characterise structures with atomic detail using probes such as x-rays, electrons, neutrons and ions.
Research explains how some plants evolved to depend on fire for survival
Researchers based at Monash University and the Swedish Museum of Natural History have pioneered the use of nuclear imaging techniques at ANSTO’s Centre for Neutron Scattering to resolve long-standing problems in plant evolutionary history linked to wildfires.
Research highlights the importance of the Murray Darling Basin for Australia’s waterbirds
An environmental study supported by a citizen science project at ANSTO and UNSW has brought greater understanding of the movement of birds between all of Australia’s major water basins and the importance of the Murray-Darling River Basin.
Research on nuclear fuel burnup supports reduction of waste and fuel costs
Recent research investigating what occurs at the interface of the uranium oxide fuel pellet and the surrounding cladding supports efforts to increase the burnup level of nuclear reactor fuel.

Research confirms that ancient Tasmania was not a ‘wilderness’ but an Indigenous cultural landscape
Recent studies led by the University of Melbourne have revealed that the Palawa people’s ancient land stewardship techniques have profoundly shaped the landscape of western Lutruwita, within the traditional territories located in Tasmania.
Australian physicists attend research meeting that tackles challenging diagnostics of plasma physics
International fusion researchers, including ANSTO’s Dr Richard Garrett, have recently returned from ITER in France where they attended a meeting of the coordinating committee of the International Tokomak Physics Activity (ITPA).
Research reveals how disordered proteins contribute to the properties of the rabies virus
A large team of international researchers have used synchrotron techniques to understand how key proteins contribute to the virulence of the rabies virus, sometimes called the “zombie virus.”
