ANSTO's Melbourne location is home to the ANSTO-owned and operated Australian Synchrotron. The Synchrotron is one of the Australia's most significant pieces of scientific infrastructure.

ANSTO has safely managed its radioactive waste for over 60 years. Waste is managed in accordance with national and international standards.

The Centre for Acclerator Science operates accelerators that can be used for space radiation testing.

A new study by researchers from Curtin University using the infrared (IR) and X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron has provided a better understanding of the chemical and elemental composition of latent fingermarks.

The Australian Synchrotron is a source of powerful X-rays and infrared radiation that can be used for a wide range of scientific and technical purposes. Synchrotron X-rays are millions of times brighter than those produced by conventional X-ray machines in laboratories and hospitals.

Exploring the interaction of polystyrene nanoplastics and blood plasma proteins.

For more than half a century, ANSTO's specialised services have supported the unique requirements of customers working in health, agriculture, defence, mining, nuclear medicine and more.

Overlaying a 360° x 90° radiation image onto a panoramic optical image of the scene, makes interpretation much easier. The spectroscopic detector at the heart of the imager enables the accurate visualisation and identification of sources across a broad energy range. 

Dr Anna Paradowska has been appointed as a Conjoint Professor of Practice in Advanced Structural Materials at the University of Sydney.

ANSTO's National Science Week Hackathon judges.

The sustainable management of water is a global challenge with environmental and economic impacts relevant to the Resources sector.

ANSTO uses atmospheric radioactivity measurements, fine particle sampling and composition analysis to understand the source and impact of harmful air pollution on human health and the environment.

Understanding the impact that contaminants on the environment within the Resources sector is essential to implement successful management strategies.

ANSTO's unique capabilities are being used to develop a quick analytical tool to determine the geographic origin of seafood and authenticates quality.

ANSTO researchers are investigating nuclear propulsion systems for applications on the sea and in space.
