Research has helped build a record of rainfall during the late Pleistocene and Holocene, and shed light on the strategies of Indigenous Australians to cope with a changing landscape.

Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.

ANSTO expert in molecular imaging contributed to international workshop.

Scientists at ANSTO together with Lithium Australia Limited (LIT) have developed a world-first technology to extract more lithium from lithium mining waste, in a game-changer for Australian lithium industry. 

Australia part of global renaissance in fusion power research symbolised by ITER experiment

Study helps make carbon dating a more accurate chronological tool.

Researchers from UNSW have found an extraordinary material that does expand or contract over an extremely wide temperature range and may be one of the most stable materials known.

ANSTO provides a range of capabilities using neutrons, X-rays and infrared radiation to study the solids, liquids and gases that might be found in materials in our solar system and beyond.

New material shows enhanced conductivity for solid oxide fuel cells used in satellites, spacecraft, transport vehicles and as power source

Research demonstrates the existence of hexagonal planar geometry in a transition metal complex with great potential application across multiple disciplines.

The need for a smaller, more transportable version of ANSTO’s 1500-litre atmospheric radon-222 monitor, and with a calibration traceable to the International System of Units, prompted the team to develop a 200-litre radon monitor that would meet those needs.

Favourable conceptual design review may lead to expanded role for Australia on ITER diagnostics.

ANSTO has played a formative role and continues to make important contributions using nuclear and isotopic techniques to understand past climates and patterns of change, maintain water resource sustainability and provide insights into the impact of contaminate in the environment.
