Nuclear technique reveals 'stone age'
Why OPAL is an advanced reactor
With the screening of the popular HBO series about Chernobyl, we asked our Nuclear Analysis team for their insights on key differences between the reactor in the TV series, a Generation II RBMK power reactor and ANSTO’s state of the art research reactor OPAL.
ANSTO's Australian Synchrotron Goes Solar for a Greener Future
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.
A new safety shutdown instrumentation and control system for the OPAL multi-purpose reactor
During the scheduled shutdown of the OPAL multi-purpose reactor, an ANSTO engineering and project team has installed a new safety shutdown instrumentation and control system (I&C).
Last meal reveals eating habits of Australian sauropod
International research led by Curtin University and supported by ANSTO, has identified and studied the first sauropod dinosaur gut contents found anywhere in the world. The stomach content was preserved with a reasonably complete skeleton of the Australian Cretaceous species Diamantinasaurus matildae found in Winton Queensland.
After your experiment
Following your experiment at the Australian Synchrotron there are certain tasks that users can complete including a user feedback survey and claiming reimbursement for travel expenses.
Data analysis - XFM beamline
Data analysis on the X-ray fluorescence microscopy beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.
Research into cell suicide earns scientist a prestigious award
Dr Angus Cowan has been presented with the Stephen Wilkins Medal, which is awarded annually to a PhD student who completed an outstanding thesis based on work at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron.
Sharing expertise and learning at new particle therapy facility
ANSTO physicist supports launch of new carbon ion therapy treatment service in Austria.
A changing of the guard in the 2018 ANSTO Top Coder Competition
The winners of the 2018 ANSTO Top Coder Competition were decided at two keenly contested grand finals with Robotics hosted by UTS and Coding held at the ANSTO Discovery Centre.
Advanced reactor research: Student opportunity
ANSTO is interested finding students to collaborate on Generation IV reactor systems.
Radiocarbon dating supports Aboriginal occupation of South Australia for 29,000 years
Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO has supported research that vastly extends the known timeline of the Aboriginal occupation of South Australia’s Riverland region.
Earthquake clues unearthed in strange, precariously balanced rocks
Imperial College London researchers tapped into ancient geological data locked within precariously balanced rocks using a new technique to boost the precision of hazard estimates for large earthquakes.
Improving the production of piezoelectric materials for naval sonar systems
Thales Australia, a key supplier to the Australian Defence Forces, provided an industrial challenge to National Graduate Innovation Forum participants relating to the production of piezoelectric ceramic components used in naval sonar arrays and systems.
