The Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering (ACNS) utilises neutrons from Australia's multi-purpose research reactor, OPAL, to solve complex research and industrial problems for Australian and international users via merit-based access and user-pays programs. Neutron scattering techniques provide the research community and industry with unique tools to study the structure, dynamics and...
Deuteration can provide contrast and improved resolution to assist investigations into the relationship between molecular structure and function of molecules of both biological and synthetic origin. Molecular deuteration of organic compounds and biomolecules increases options available in characterisation and complex structure function investigations using neutron scattering and reflectometry,...
The Australia Synchrotron achieved first light in August 2006, and since then has operated 10 individual beamlines as part of Australia's largest standalone scientific research facility. In a typical year, the facility conducts up to 1000 individual experiment, and hosts more than 5000 User visits. Although modest compared to international synchrotron facilities in terms of the size of our...
