In part 1 of this two-part series, ANSTO scientists from across the organisation became film critics to review Christopher Nolan’s new movie, Oppenheimer, which explores the life of the director of the Manhattan Project to develop an atomic weapon.
ANSTO’s user office in Melbourne offers access to the Australian Synchrotron, a world-class research facility with over 4,000 user visits per year. ANSTO seeks collaboration and partnerships with research organisations, scientific users and commercial users.
Study helps make carbon dating a more accurate chronological tool.
The 3D structure of a fungal and plant enzyme solves 50-year-old mystery.
Stronger research link with IAEA with the establishment of Collaborating Centre at ANSTO to support environment and cultural heritage activities
The mining industry is set to benefit from a new Australian capability that uses a nuclear scanning technique to detect the presence of precious metals and strategic minerals in a core sample.
Excellent radiolabelling facilities and the operation of OPAL, a world-class multi-purpose nuclear reactor, enable ANSTO to produce a large range of radioisotopes for Australian researchers in both radiopharmaceutical and environmental areas.
A cross-disciplinary team has used laboratory-based and synchrotron-based infrared spectroscopy imaging techniques to monitor the waxy surface of living plant leaves in real-time to gain insights into plant physiology in response to disease, biological changes or environmental stress.
An ANSTO radiochemist has been awarded a scholarship to carry out research at the world-renowned Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.
Read about an ANSTO scientist and their work to prepare for a school project or interview.
Archive of ANSTO research publications, seminars and short talks.
Australian clean energy technology company, entX Limited is taking advantage of ANSTO’s unique capacity to generate tailored radioisotope products in the OPAL multi-purpose nuclear reactor to advance a series of innovative projects.
The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.
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.
Research can improve both food processing and food product development.
