Scientists untangle the challenging complexities of radiocarbon in ice cores
Research elucidates how in situ cosmogenic radiocarbon is produced, retained and lost in the top layer of compacting snow (the ‘firn layer’) and the shallow ice below at an ice accumulation site in Greenland.
Scientific ingenuity + design powers challenge-based innovation
A 'Challenge-Based Innovation' platform at the nandin Innovation Centre is progressing as part of a funding package from the NSW Government and a Memorandum of Understanding with Swinburne University of Technology and Design Factory Melbourne (DFM).
Boost to bone hormones as researchers open new avenues of osteoporosis research

Role at ANSTO
Single session radiation therapy nearing a reality
ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron has been working on an initiative that could substantially improve radiotherapy treatment for cancer patients.
Powerful new microscope a game changer in battle against disease
The Titan Krios cryo-electron microscope reveals the inner workings of life at the cellular level.
Nanostructure explains the behaviour of molecules with liquid-like properties
ANSTO has supported research led by a University of Sydney team who gained insights into how oil molecules retain their ‘liquid-like’ properties when they are chemically attached as an extremely thin layer to solid surfaces.

Total Fluorine Analysis
ANSTO offers accelerator-based particle-induced gamma-ray emission techniques to determine total fluorine concentration in a range of solid materials and rapidly screen for the presence of PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances).

Australian access to overseas synchrotrons
The International Synchrotron Access Program (ISAP) is administered by the Australian Synchrotron and is designed to assist Australian-based synchrotron users to access overseas synchrotron related facilities.

Amelia Iverson is a Community Facilitator with the new VH2 Hydrogen Hub at Swinburne.

Nuclear medicine processing and distribution
ANSTO’s nuclear medicine processing and distribution facility assembles, loads, tests and distributes a range of nuclear medicine products, including Mo-99. The Mo-99 is dispensed into an ANSTO radiopharmaceutical Gentech® Generator where it decays to Tc-99m.

How to make a complaint about ANSTO
Predicting the impact of space radiation on satellite electrical systems
Airbus Australia Pacific has provided students participating in ANSTO’s National Graduate Innovation Forum with a practical challenge relating to technology that is exposed to damaging radiation in space.
Research brings a better understanding of the stability of very old groundwater
Groundwater experts from ANSTO and UNSW have led a collaboration of Australian and American researchers to analyse the composition of deep, very old groundwater and develop a new conceptual framework that describes the degradation of carbon over time in the subsurface.
Nanoscale insights to improve organic solar cell thin films
A large international team has provided an understanding of how nanoscale interactions affect the thermal stability of a type of next generation organic solar cells.
Collaborative research brings new insights into radioactive waste, nuclear fuel and nuclear waste forms
ANSTO researchers have demonstrated longstanding expertise in the study of nuclear fuel and radioactive waste with two recent journal articles in a special issue of Frontiers of Chemistry.
Better predictions of the working life of industrial components
A revised model has been developed that can more accurately predict the actual service life of an industrial component.
Nobel Prizes recognise insights at molecular and atomic scale
The Nobel Prizes for Physics, Chemistry and Medicine have been announced.
