Fission vs fusion: an explainer
The release of the Oppenheimer film, the story of the director of the Manhattan Project, has prompted many people to go online and search for an explanation of the difference between fission and fusion, two fundamental scientific concepts.
Neutron scattering scientists recognised by their peers
Insight for catalytic chemistry
Snapshots of an unprecedented double element-hydrogen bond activation at a transition metal centre.
New Paper shows that Deuteration can improve Photovoltaic Devices

Infrastructure - Magnetism
Investigations of various aspects of magnetism can be conducted on all neutron-scattering instruments at OPAL.

As Chief Nuclear Officer, Hefin reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer of ANSTO, where he acts as the Technical Authority for the nuclear safety assurance across the organisation.

Role at ANSTO

Dr Karin Soldenhoff is a Principal Consultant within ANSTO's minerals area, managing the process development and research groups.
2019 Shorebirds Competition Summary and Results
From June to August we invited primary schools in Greater Sydney/Illawarra and Melbourne to participate in our 2019 Shorebirds Competition. Students in Years 3 to 6 were asked to create a public awareness poster for a threatened shorebird found in Australia.
Neutrinos, atomic clocks and an experiment to detect a time dilation
Griffith University researchers are conducting an experiment at ANSTO that will test a revolutionary physics theory that time reversal symmetry-breaking by neutrinos might cause a time dilation at the quantum scale.

Travel Funding
The Australian Synchrotron provides funding support for successful beamtime applicants in the form of travel funding and/or onsite accommodation. Travel funds granted are to be used solely to cover the majority of the cost to travel to the AS facility. The User Office will book accommodation for interstate user groups at the onsite AS Guesthouse.

Sarah joined ANSTO in May as a part-time Marketing and Events Coordinator for the Nuclear Science and Technology group.
Sharing expertise with Japan
The National Deuteration facility is assisting with the establishment of a Japanese Chemical Deuteration Facility.
Australian planetary scientists congratulate NASA after Juno enters Jupiter's orbit
Nuclear tech helps power Perseverance Rover on Mars
A large international research team led by Academia Sinica in Taiwan investigated how heat is transferred in an advanced thermoelectric material made with germanium (Ge) and tellurium (Te) and doped with antimony (Sb). These devices are used to power space probes such as the Mars Curiosity Rover.

Bilby - Small Angle Neutron Scattering
The instrument is very well suited for the study of kinetic effects, like relaxation following a chemical reaction, or external impulses like mechanical deformation, an electric or magnetic field.
