There have been significant developments in small modular reactor technologies in 2022. The International Atomic Energy Agency expects small modular reactors (SMRs) to make an important contribution to achieving global climate goals and energy supply security. But with more than 70 SMR designs under development in 18 countries – including innovative reactors that are yet to be licensed and novel methods of modular manufacturing that are new to the nuclear industry – widely deploying SMRs in time remains a tall task.

Atomic mechanism produces colossal cooling effect in new class of materials .

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.

The application of cosomogenic radionuclides in the Earth sciences has provided the essential geochronological timing of continental and polar glacial history over the past few millions years, and revolutionised our understanding of the processes controlling landscape evolution on spatial scales of metres to kilometres.
