Developed by ANSTO’s predecessor the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (known as the AAEC) in the late 1960s, the Technetium-99m Generator revolutionised nuclear medicine imaging in Australia by enabling imaging procedures to be performed not only in major capital cities but throughout regional and rural Australia.

Scientists from Monash, ANSTo and China have developed an ultra-thin membrane that could separate harmful ions from water or capture gases.

Particle induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE) is typically run in conjunction with PIXE and RBS and is used to quantify concentrations of elements such as lithium, fluorine, sodium, magnesium and aluminium.

A site for the National Radioactive Waste Management Facility has been acquired, with the new facility to be built near the town of Kimba on the South Australian Eyre Peninsula. 

Four international authorities will deliver plenary addresses virtually at the 15th International Conference on Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS15) , which will be held online from 15-19 November.

ITRAX has now analysed more than a kilometre of cores since it became operational in 2012.

Understanding of the role that programmed cell death has in development.

Australasia is home to some of the oldest rock art motifs in the world. In tropical latitudes, due to climate change, the rock art deterioration is accelerating.

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a versatile tool for chemistry, biology, and materials science. By probing how x rays are absorbed from core electrons of atoms in a sample, the technique can reveal the local structure around selected atoms.

In April 15, 1953, Australia entered the nuclear science arena, when the Atomic Energy Act came into effect. The Australian Atomic Energy Commission (AAEC) followed and in 1987 the AAEC evolved into the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) as it’s known today.
