Environment Research and Technology
ANSTO conducts and enables research to address some of Australia’s and the world’s most challenging environmental problems.
Experts to discuss latest developments in state-of-the-art radiation treatments for cancer which use accelerated particles
Mitigation and Optimisation of Radiation Responses
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.
IAEA and ANSTO partner to support women in nuclear science and technology
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.
Mud and magnetism provides insights into materials and environment: AINSE young researchers
Improved understanding of progression rates in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, and schizophrenia
Particle Induced Gamma Ray Emission
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.
Federal grants for ANSTO expertise and infrastructure will benefit manufacturing and nuclear technologies
Three new federal grants were announced to support manufacturing and nuclear technologies.
Ion channels and chronic pain
Particle Induced X-ray Emission
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.
Beamtime guide - Imaging and Medical
Information has been provided to assist with the preparation of experiment proposals and beamtime.
Radiation training terms and conditions
On behalf of ANSTO thank you for your interest in our tours. We hope your visit to ANSTO will be both enjoyable and informative.
Elemental and trace metal analysis
Elemental and trace metal analysis lab is fully equipped with a range of instruments to trace elements and metals in environmental samples.
Nuclear technique reveals 'stone age'
Small angle X-ray scattering instrument
An instrument used to study any materials with structure of the length scale 1-100nm.
Identification and analysis of components in bruises
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.
Bacteria-driven remediation of iron ore tailings
Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.
Actinide and heavy ion isotopic analysis
ANSTO has the capability to analyse heavy isotopes such as 129I, platinum group elements, 236U and Pu isotopes.
