Looking after 12 tonnes of organic solvent for dark matter project
ANSTO is temporarily housing 12 tonnes of an important chemical for the SABRE Dark Matter Detector as part of the Dark Matter project.
The history of ANSTO began 70 years ago with the Atomic Energy Act 1953
Light and colour
Students learn about light and the colour spectrum, why objects are coloured, differences between coloured light and pigment and how our eyes see colour and light. They engage in two hands-on activities that combine science with art and encourage creative exploration of colour and light. Cost: $295 per session. Maximum class size: 30
Energy use and emissions
Detailed data on ANSTO electricity use and CO2 emissions for FY2022 - FY2023
Samples - Far Infrared
Samples and techniques on the Far Infrared beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.
Research and development
Our research group carries out fundamental research uniquely applied to industrial problems in the areas of uranium, rare earth and lithium processing.
Nuclear and ionising radiation detection and dosimetry
Our services include the use of techniques to develop innovative radiation detector technology, such as performing alpha spectroscopy to characterise charge collection capability and radiation transport simulation. We also have expertise in measuring the electrical characteristics of novel detectors and semiconductor devices.

Specialist expertise and capabilities at ANSTO enable an understanding and improvement of current and advanced nuclear fuel materials
With a well-established portfolio of nuclear research and the operation of Australia's only nuclear reactor OPAL, ANSTO scientists conduct both fundamental and applied research on fuel for current, advanced, and future nuclear technology systems.
Food and health
Consumers want to know that the foods they consume provide health benefits. Food materials science can monitor changes during digestion as well as assist in the development of low-fat products.
X-ray absorption spectroscopy
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.
