Research reveals little water connectivity between coal seam gas and aquifers
The risks posed by stormwater runoff can be monitored with thin-film technology
A large collaboration of Australian and New Zealand researchers has established that a thin film technology can be used to monitor stormwater effectively and provides a way to translate the presence of metal contaminants into potential risks to aquatic ecosystems.
Research may lead to more effective anti-tumour drug
High intensity X-ray beam provides insights into the activity of natural killer cells.
STEM-SAGE Initiative
Inspiring young women to be part of next generation of scientists.
ANSTO inspires young women into STEM careers
To celebrate International Women’s Day, ANSTO opened its doors to more than 50 female STEM students who heard from two accomplished ANSTO’s female scientists and STEM champions.
Pilot project re-designs instrument cabin
The first pilot project at the Australian Synchrotron takes place following a Memorandum of Understanding between nandin and Swinburne University of Technology and Design Factory Melbourne (DFM).
Think Science! competition engages schools nationwide
Sharing radiochemistry expertise with an IAEA training course
Twenty-four participants from Asia and the Pacific travelled to ANSTO for an International Atomic Energy Agency Regional Training Course on ‘Production and preclinical evaluation of emerging cyclotron-based radiopharmaceuticals’
Investigating advanced materials for large scale energy storage
New cathode material provides a direction for the design of high performing sodium ion batteries for large scale energy storage

Sika - Cold Triple Axis Spectrometer
The instrument is ideally suited to study of spin and lattice dynamics, magnon and phonon dispersion relations in single crystal samples.
Sharing forensic expertise benefits real world event in the Philippines
Training hosted and delivered by ANSTO on behalf of the IAEA assisted the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) to prepare for the successful management of a recent nuclear forensics operation.

What is nuclear science?
Nuclear science is crucial to understanding our universe, our world and ourselves at the atomic level. If we can understand how atoms get together, interact, or can be best combined with other atoms, new, more efficient materials and drugs can be developed.

Portable XRF technology is viable approach for seafood provenance
Research indicates that the portable x-ray fluorescence (XRF) is an appropriate analytical technique for determining seafood provenance at external sites.
Transistors and NASA's radiation paradox: strength in detection, weakness in space operations
The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.
