An advanced electron microscope facility for nanomaterials, functional materials and minerals. An advanced electron microscope facility for nanomaterials, functional materials and minerals: Recent advances in electron microscopy provide instruments that can resolve at the atomic level and image both morphologically and chemically at these resolutions. These modern instruments are also less complex to operate therefore allowing many more researchers to access them directly.

An advanced electron microscope facility for nanomaterials, functional materials and minerals: Recent advances in electron microscopy provide instruments that can resolve at the atomic level and image both morphologically and chemically at these resolutions. These modern instruments are also less complex to operate therefore allowing many more researchers to access them directly. The High Resolution Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope will allow a complete, nano-scale characterisation of natural and synthetic materials in a broad range of scientific, engineering and industrial applications. The Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope will provide nano-science users with a tool that can image many of the processes in the formation of these nanostructures and particles.Read moreRead less
Continuous Reaction Networks that Model Chemical Evolution of RNA. This Project aims to develop experimental models for chemical evolution that may have happened on the early Earth and which were important to the emergence of life. This Project expects to uncover synthetic pathways for ribonucleotide production using a combination of ionizing radiation and dry-wet cycles. Expected outcomes include an increased understanding of the range of physical and chemical parameters that will allow for rib ....Continuous Reaction Networks that Model Chemical Evolution of RNA. This Project aims to develop experimental models for chemical evolution that may have happened on the early Earth and which were important to the emergence of life. This Project expects to uncover synthetic pathways for ribonucleotide production using a combination of ionizing radiation and dry-wet cycles. Expected outcomes include an increased understanding of the range of physical and chemical parameters that will allow for ribonucleotide production to occur under the proposed geochemical settings. The knowledge gained in this Project will benefit the understanding of the chemical evolution of complex chemical mixtures relevant to early Earth environments and provide new mechanisms for how ribonucleotides could have arisen abiotically.Read moreRead less
Advanced X-ray investigation of atomic and condensed matter science for Australian industry and scientific research. This project aims to improve the precision and calibration of measurements involving X-rays. This in turn will improve outcomes and instrumentation which utilise X-ray sources to probe structures and properties of advanced materials and biological samples.

Synchrotron X-ray absorption fine structure and fundamental X-ray interactions for nano-physics, chemistry and mineralogy. This project will develop new synchrotron techniques for measuring and interpreting X-ray data from materials targeting the nano-environment and bonding. The first wave of synchrotron nanotechnology is nascent. The project's X-ray methods develop techniques in applied mineralogy and catalysis. New insight will address key questions in chemistry, mining and biology.

Summary
Australian Synchrotron Access Program. The Australian Synchrotron epitomises scientific research excellence in Australian and New Zealand. Its impact spans nearly every research sector. This proposal brings together over 30 Australian universities working together to ensure that world-class peer-reviewed science continues to be performed at the Australian Synchrotron.
Geological applications of synchrotron radiation: magmas, fluids, ores and minerals. This project will use the Australian synchrotron facility to study magmas and minerals to improve our understanding of the formation of ore-deposits and the evolution of the continents.
