Space research enabled with new capability
New high energy ion microprobe beamline supports space research on the effects of radiation on astronauts.
A closer look at the science of detecting flu
High-energy heavy ion microprobe
The high-energy heavy-ion microprobe is used for the characterisation or modification of material properties at depths from approximately 1 micrometre to maximum depths of up to 500 micrometres from the material surface.
Sea level rise predicted to dramatically speed up erosion of rock coastlines by 2100
New research published a team from the Imperial College London, University of Glasgow and ANSTO suggests that rock coasts, which make up over half the world’s coastlines, could retreat more rapidly in the future due to accelerating sea level rise.
Bully T cells key to next generation flu vaccine
Research reveals how disordered proteins contribute to the properties of the rabies virus
A large team of international researchers have used synchrotron techniques to understand how key proteins contribute to the virulence of the rabies virus, sometimes called the “zombie virus.”
Aiding the global research effort on COVID-19
Melbourne researchers map the structure of a key COVID-19 protein using the Australian Synchrotron
Australia’s nuclear science capabilities have been central to our fight against COVID-19
ANSTO scientists share approach on the global stage at the IAEA General Conference.
International science team paves way for fast and accurate flu diagnosis
ANSTO supports investigations into new area of COVID research
ANSTO’s National Deuteration Facility has been providing high-quality deuterated lipids used in the construction of cell membrane models to support research that improves our understanding of how the virus interacts with elements of the cell membrane, a relatively new area of investigation.
Flexible, printable X-ray detectors
Low-cost X-ray detectors featuring high sensitivity, durability and physical flexibility are required in fields ranging from medical imaging to defence. In this study, a new material for X-ray detection was coupled with inkjet printing to produce a series of prototype X-ray detectors.
ANSTO contributes to new research could pave the way for safer and more efficient COVID-19 testing
International research led by Monash University and the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity has achieved a proof of concept for a new, fast, portable saliva screening test that uses an infrared light technology to confirm infection with SARS-CoV-2.
Snaphot of molecular mechanism at work in lethal virus
X-ray crystallography at the Australian Synchrotron contributed to major research findings.
Helping in the fight against COVID-19
Experts at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron are prioritising work that could hold the key to fast-tracking the development of a vaccine for COVID-19.
Cosmic dust reveals Earth’s ancient atmosphere
National Science Week: Success with virtual events
Virtual activities celebrating the benefits of nuclear science and technology held for National Science Week
Reconstructing the history of coastal erosion
Research makes it possible to assess if and how rocky coasts, which make up the majority of the world’s coasts including Australia and New Zealand, will respond to changes in marine conditions.
Nanoindentation + modelling = innovation for industry
Modelling and experimentation - a powerful combination in probing mechanical properties of ion irradiated materials through nanoindentation.
