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.
Historic memorandums of understanding on the peaceful use of nuclear with Thailand and Canada.
Dr Luiz Bortolan Neto, a structural materials engineer at ANSTO has received an Industry Partnership award for his significant contribution to defence science at the DMTC annual conference in Canberra, last week.
Peter Kabokov will continue work that will contribute to defence industry
We are using nuclear and other methods to improve the traceability of food to ensure safety and security for consumers and industry, optimise the various functions of food and its production and understand the fundamental mechanisms that link some food to an immune response
Combustion reactions in vehicles, household woodfires and coal-fired power plants all result in fine particle air pollution in the air we breathe. ANSTO has been measuring and characterising fine particle pollution from key sites around Australia for more than 30 years. This data set provides records from 1998 to 2019 of the concentration of 12 elements present in fine airborne particulate matter from an air sampling station located in Mayfield in Newcastle, NSW.
Three magnet systems are available for use with neutron scattering instruments: horizontal magnets, vertical magnets as well as controlled voltage and current devices.
The samples preparation facilities include state-of-the-art chemistry laboratories and other specialist supporting areas
Nuclear science is applied by ANSTO's scientists in many areas that are vital to Australia's future, including agriculture, industry and manufacturing, minerals construction, health and environment. Our work in the development and applications and new knowledge and skills arises from world-class experience in nuclear science and technologies.
Dr Catalina Curceanu will explore exotic atoms and impossible phenomena in the universe.
Monash University, University of Queensland and Australian National University researchers have used ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron in their study of meteorites found on Earth that could be used in future to find evidence of life on the planet Mars.
Ultra-flexible electronics has many potential applications within areas such as for example the military, healthcare and energy.
Radioactive radon gas is a decay product of uranium and thorium, which are found naturally in rocks, soil and building materials. Radon is a significant component of background radiation and can accumulate in poorly ventilated indoor environments. In this data set, we investigated the effect of charging a balloon, which was then hung in an enclosed space, on its level of radioactivity.

Advanced nuclear reactors, such as molten salt-based reactors and very high-temperature reactors provide a viable option within a future mix of energy systems.
