Restoring soil carbon can bring benefits for agricultural productivity and climate change mitigation.

Radioactive phosphorous for implantable medical device to treat pancreatic cancer in global clinical trial

Stage 1 of the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory was officially opened today. It will be home to multi-disciplinary scientists from five research partners who help us understand dark matter.

ANSTO's OPAL reactor is one of the world's most advanced and reliable research reactors today. To ensure we can continue operating OPAL safely and reliably and maximise utilisation, ANSTO must regularly carry out maintenance and upgrades.

ANSTO is part of collaboration conducting experiments to redefine the kilogram linking it to a fundamental constant of nature.

Principal Research Scientist Andrew Smith is travelling to the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica with American collaborators on a 3-year National Science Foundation project now in its final year that involves mining tonnes of ice for palaeoclimate research.

The Infrared Microspectroscopy beamline combines the high brilliance and collimation of the synchrotron beam through a Bruker V80v Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and into a Hyperion 3000 IR microscope to reach high signal-to-noise ratios at diffraction limited spatial resolutions between 3-8 μm.

The role of trace elements as palaeoclimate proxies has been explored in ANSTO-led collaborative environmental research.

The outcome could have significant implications for better monitoring, management and remedial action of groundwater globally.

ANSTO will make an application to the independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, to vary its license for its Interim Waste Store. The original operating license was approved in 2015, enabling the facility to hold what is called a TN-81 cask of intermediate-level radioactive waste that was safely repatriated from France in 2015.

An accomplished international photographer has capture dazzling new images of one component of the main ring at our Australian Synchrotron and provided an inside view of the electron’s path when it is used.

More than 3,200 solar panels have been installed across the rooftops of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation’s (ANSTO) Australian Synchrotron in Clayton, offsetting enough power to light up the whole MCG for more than five years.

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.

University of Melbourne researchers have investigated a method to produce magnetic nanoparticles in Australia for use in COVID-19 PCR tests.

The User Advisory Committee (UAC) are pleased to present this year's invited speakers.
