    APDAS - applied physics division analytical services: accelerator based techniques
    (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, ) Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation
    APDAS (Applied Physics Division Analytical Services) is a service supplied by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, a government-funded body committed to building and maintaining strong links with industry by providing scientific and technical goods and services wherever possible. Because of its background and achievements in high-tech research, APDAS can provide solutions to many of the problems that arise in Australian industries. One of the facilities available to APDAS is a positive ion particle accelerator. This enables any positive ion in a gaseous medium to be accelerated to energies ranging from a few hundred thousand to three million electron volts for single charge states. The accelerated ions strike a target causing nuclear reactions which allow several types of analyses including elemental analysis to be performed. In this APDAS facility, ion beams can be steady-state or pulsed with pulse durations as low as three nanoseconds. Target preparation and fully automated data recording are also available.

    Proposed Lucas Heights tandem accelerator
    (Australian Atomic Energy Commission., 1985-01) Australian Atomic Energy Commission
    It is proposed that an 8 million volt tandem accelerator (LHTA - Lucas Heights Tandem Acceleator) be installed at the Australian Atomic Energy Commission's Lucas Heights Research Laboratories, Lucas Heights, Sydney. This new facility, expected to cost $6 million, will not only extend many established applications of science in Australia but will also introduce a number of new technologies. These new technologies would benefit many sections of the Australian community - from resources to research, from health to heritage and from erosion to corrosion.

    Scientific facilities and equipment
    (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, 2009-08-24) Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation
    The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) is the home of Australia’s nuclear science expertise. This unique expertise is applied to radiopharmaceutical production and research into areas such as climate change, water resource management, materials engineering, applications of radiopharmaceuticals and use of neutrons in understanding atomic and molecular processes, as well as a range of other scientific research disciplines. ANSTO is a Federal Government agency and operates a range of nuclear and non-nuclear facilities and equipment for research and commercial purposes including Australia’s only operating nuclear reactor, OPAL. ANSTO applies nuclear science in a wide range of areas for the benefit of all Australians.
