Detailed molecular structure of silver nanocrystals determined

ANSTO can confirm it has completed its 9th successful export of spent fuel. The spent fuel, from OPAL, ANSTO’s multipurpose reactor, has gone to France for reprocessing.

Applications and Publications

Airbus Australia Pacific has provided students participating in ANSTO’s National Graduate Innovation Forum with a practical challenge relating to technology that is exposed to damaging radiation in space.

Researchers from the University of New South Wales have developed a new type of rechargeable battery that uses protons as charge carriers, offering a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries.

An international research team has discovered how a bacterial toxin, known as Ssp, is capable of entering and killing a wide range of living cells, including human cells using the Australian Synchrotron.

Researchers developing new materials and devices that can withstand the harsh radiation environment in space are using the unique ANSTO’s capability to simulate the effects of high-energy ion irradiation on the properties and performance of these materials and devices.

Evidence of the earliest occupation of the coasts of Australia from Barrow Island, Northwest Australia.
