to The ANSTO Research Portal.
This is your gateway to all of ANSTO’s research facilities and experience.
ANSTO, one of Australia's largest public research organisations and custodian of much of our country's landmark and national research infrastructure, is home to the Open Pool Australian Light-water (OPAL) multi-purpose research reactor, the Australian Synchrotron, the Centre for Accelerator Science, the National Deuteration Facility and the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering.
The ANSTO Research Portal permits merit access submissions to ANSTO NSW based facilities and capabilities including the the Centre for Accelerator Science, Environment Research & Technology Group, Nuclear Stewardship, Biosciences and Vivarium.
Access to the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering and the National Deuteration Facility is via the ACNS Portal. Previously access to the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering and the National Deuteration Facility was via the ACNS Legacy Portal. The ACNS Legacy Portal will still be used for non-merit access but will eventually be phased from use and data transferred to the ACNS Portal.
Access to the Centre for Accelerator Science, Environment Research & Technology Group, Nuclear Stewardship, Biosciences and Vivarium capabilities will be via the 'Other NSW Facilities and Capabilities' proposal button/tab. This has been renamed from 'Access' proposals.
Access requests to the Australian Synchrotron at ANSTO's Victorian campus are via its dedicated portal.
Each year almost 7000 visiting researchers from other Australian research organisations and international research centres have access to a wide range of world-class research facilities that support research in a broad range of areas including human health, our environment and innovation for industry.
