Feathery moa’s fossilised footprints, ancient age revealed

ANSTO scientist, Dr Klaus Wilcken of the Centre for Accelerator Science, used cosmogenic nuclide dating to determine the ages of layered sand and gravel samples, in which seven footprints of the flightless bird, the moa, were found on the South Island in New Zealand in 2019.

Accelerator

Micro-Particle Induced X-ray Emission

Micro-Particle Induced X-ray Emission (µPIXE) is used to construct elemental maps that show variations of an element's concentration across the sample surface.

PIXE Microbeam on Sirius

Particle Induced X-ray Emission

Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) is a powerful and relatively simple analytical technique that can be used to identify and quantify trace elements typically ranging from aluminium to to uranium.

Cape Grim

Radon analytical facilities

Measurements of the naturally-occurring radioactive gas radon can be used to accurately categorise the degree of atmospheric mixing.

CORIS360 Imaging technology

Compressed sensing technology

Using the theory of compressed sensing technology, a team of physicists and scientists invented and developed the CORIS360® platform imaging technology. Compressed sensing imaging can generate an image with far fewer samples compared with traditional imaging techniques.
