Bushfires in proximity to ANSTO during the 2018 bushfires.

The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) has joined a team, lead by the US Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), to install a high resolution monitoring system at ANSTO’s medical isotope production facility in Lucas Heights, Australia.

Neutron scattering techniques help characterise the structure of a particle based emulsifier

On average, there is now 17 per cent less rainfall across Western Australia’s south-western region than was recorded prior to 1970. This rainfall reduction has economic, social and environmental implications for the region, in particular for the growing capital of Perth, as well as water-dependent industries in the state.

New technology is being developed in Sydney to recycle used Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and turn it into raw materials for 3D printing.

ANSTO may provide travel and accommodation support to successful grant applicants from AINSE member organisations. Travel funds granted are to be used solely to cover the majority of the cost to travel to Sydney.

The Program Advisory Committees review proposals submitted to a particular beamline at the Australian Synchrotron

Neutron scattering helps clarify the arrangement of magnetic vortices, skyrmions, in material

Radiocarbon analyses on corals from two sites in Australian waters of the southwest (SW) Pacific has indicated significant changes in ocean circulation in the Pacific and large climate variability during the early to mid-Holocene period (8,000-5,400 years ago).

Research confirms that methylcellulose, one of the most widely used hydrogel-forming materials in biomedical research and consumer products, organises itself into a structural architecture

Testing at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science supports an action plan just published by the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) to phase out per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in fibre-based food contact packaging in Australia by December 2023.

The nandin Deep Technology Incubator at ANSTO’s Lucas Heights innovation precinct has welcomed two new members.

Lithium Australia, a company that has a close association with ANSTO’s business unit Minerals, has been awarded a US patent for its unique lithium mining technology SiLeach®.

The first demonstration of reversible symmetry lowering phase transformation with heating.

ANSTO is part of collaboration conducting experiments to redefine the kilogram linking it to a fundamental constant of nature.

The Australian Government’s nuclear agency, ANSTO, together with NSW Police and multiple state and federal authorities, has completed an operation to repatriate radioactive waste from the UK.

ANSTO provides multiple sources for radiation testing of materials and devices including Co-60 gamma sources, x-ray, proton and heavier ion-beams.
