Leading review confirms Australia's world-class credentials in nuclear safety and security
ANSTO has just completed the largest coordinated safety and security review of the OPAL multi-purpose research reactor, as part of a new a world-leading approach to assessing performance

Workbooks
ANSTO provides secondary students with a range of learning resources for those interested in science or studying for exams. For teachers, ANSTO provides learning resources and professional development, as well as in-school-term science tours and videoconferences. Workbooks are provided as required learning material to accompany a school visit to ANSTO. They can also be used on their own as a classroom resource.
Investigating unusual water movement
ANSTO expertise focused on understanding of reduced water levels at Thirlmere Lakes in three year collaborative project
Synchrotron techniques reveal amount of carbon captured in microscopic seams of deep-sea limestone
A collaboration of Australian scientists has used ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron to measure the amount of carbon that is captured in microscopic seams of deep-sea limestone, which acts as a carbon sink.
Surfing at the atomic scale: ANSTO scientists confirm experimentally new fundamental law for liquids
The first experimental evidence to validate a newly published universal law that provides insights into the complex energy states for liquids has been found using an advanced nuclear technique at ANSTO.

Access to information
Better understanding of light harvesting may benefit agriculture

Scientific Computing
The Scientific Computing team supports researchers by performing numerical simulations that complement experimental research. In particular, we use state-of-the-art software to perform computational quantum mechanical modelling, molecular dynamics simulations, lattice dynamics calculation, data analysis and visualisations.
Studying Western Australian caves to help us understand climate change
On average, there is now 17 per cent less rainfall across Western Australia’s south-western region than was recorded prior to 1970. This rainfall reduction has economic, social and environmental implications for the region, in particular for the growing capital of Perth, as well as water-dependent industries in the state.
New beamline provides state-of-the-art imaging capability
The new Micro Computed Tomography (MCT) beamline is the first instrument to become operational as part of the $94 million Project BRIGHT program, which will see the completion of eight new beamlines at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron.
Research could lead to better herbicides and infection treatments
The 3D structure of a fungal and plant enzyme solves 50-year-old mystery.
