This program explores the mechanism and outcome of the interaction of radiation on biological systems in order to improve our understanding of the impact of radiation on the brain, optimise radiotherapy and develop mitigation strategies for space travellers.

This week women in science from 16 countries came together like never before. Inspiring women, young and old, were the first to complete the W4NSEC (Women for Nuclear Science Education and Communication) program that is designed to support women who are wanting to improve their education and communication skills in nuclear science.

Particle induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE) is typically run in conjunction with PIXE and RBS and is used to quantify concentrations of elements such as lithium, fluorine, sodium, magnesium and aluminium.

Three new federal grants were announced to support manufacturing and nuclear technologies.

Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) is a powerful and relatively simple analytical technique that can be used to identify and quantify trace elements typically ranging from aluminium to to uranium.

Information has been provided to assist with the preparation of experiment proposals and beamtime.

Elemental and trace metal analysis lab is fully equipped with a range of instruments to trace elements and metals in environmental samples.

An instrument used to study any materials with structure of the length scale 1-100nm.

As blood breaks down in the skin tissue, the colour of a bruise changes with time. As such, it may be used to find out information about the age of the bruise and hence a timeframe of when the incident that caused the mark took place.
