The nuclear analysis team at ANSTO recently had a significant role in the re-design and optimisation of a cold neutron source facility for the reactor, its installation and the subsequent restart after a six-month shutdown.

Radiation can be described as energy or particles from a source that travel through space or other mediums. Light, heat, and wireless communications are all forms of radiation.

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

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.

A collaboration of scientists from RMIT, ANSTO and the CSIRO has published pioneering research that brings new insights into intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions (IDPs)/ (IDRs) and how they behave under various physiological processes.

In partnership with the Australian Museum as part of National Science Week explore the 2020 hackathon theme of Deep Blue: Innovation for the future of our oceans

Australian and New Zealand Society of Nuclear Medicine recognises Nigel Lengkeek

It’s been one year since nandin opened its doors. Let's take a look back at what we've achieved so far before setting our sights on the future.

The Detection & Imaging group builds on ANSTO’s 70-year history of scientific achievements and contributions in meeting the nuclear needs of industry, globally.

An environmental study supported by a citizen science project at ANSTO and UNSW has brought  greater understanding of the movement of birds between all of Australia’s major water basins and the importance of the Murray-Darling River Basin.

Following a decade of imaging to support research and clinical trials at ANSTO and the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre at Camperdown, two PET scanners have been transferred to the University of Wollongong.

The work of the group comprises Radioactivity Measurement Standards, Radioanalytical chemistry, Environmental Radioactivity Measurement Centre, Nuclear security science and Environmental monitoring.

Atomic structure of new cathode material for sodium ion batteries helps explain long life

International interest is building in Australia’s new multi-million-dollar radioactive waste processing facility at the Sydney campus of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).

Australia’s Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) is well-known for facilitating incredible science and creating life-saving nuclear medicines, but for the last 40 years it’s been quietly producing a largely unsung net zero hero: Neutron Transmutation Doped (NTD) silicon.

ANSTO can confirm it has completed its 9th successful export of spent fuel. The spent fuel, from OPAL, ANSTO’s multipurpose reactor, has gone to France for reprocessing.

ANSTO has safely managed its radioactive waste for over 60 years. Waste is managed in accordance with national and international standards.

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