The International Synchrotron Access Program (ISAP) is administered by the Australian Synchrotron and is designed to assist Australian-based synchrotron users to access overseas synchrotron related facilities.
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.
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Health research and Technology
Role at ANSTO
ANSTO Physicist Andrew Smith collaborates with international scientists to study historical greenhouse gas concentrations from Antarctic ice core samples. This data set contains temperature records and concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane from the last 800,000 years.
Students will:
- read suggested articles relating to the increase in concentration of greenhouse gases
- construct graphs using the data provided
- use the knowledge and understanding acquired from reading the suggested articles and their constructed graphs to answer questions provided
Consultant Health Physicist, Radiation Services
As a Consultant Health Physicist within ANSTO’s Radiation Services team, Bronte brings her experience in the field of radiation detection and protection to support the development and delivery of complex programs in a commercially focu
The 1MV accelerator system, named VEGA, is designed with the capability to perform high efficiency, high precision 14C and actinide mass spectrometry.
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.
Two ANSTO environmental scientists are part of a large team led by the Australian National University (ANU), who have received an Australian Research Council Discovery Project grant to investigate how environmental change and human activities since industrialisation have impacted the transport and deposition of toxic metals on the south coast of Australia, Tasmania, and remote Southern Ocean islands.
A targeted radioactive infusion that is a game-changer in late-stage prostate cancer can also dramatically improve outcomes for patients in earlier stages of this disease, a Peter Mac-led study has shown.
ANSTO has the capability to analyse heavy isotopes such as 129I, platinum group elements, 236U and Pu isotopes.
