Big science future for Australia
Date:7/13/2010

y and share our knowledge."

ACAS Director, Dr Roger Rassool from the School of Physics at the University of Melbourne, says: "ACAS will nurture and train the next generation of scientists, helping to secure Australia's future. A critical part of the development of young students is exposure to international research so they can learn from others and share our unique systems and expertise. ACAS will make this possible in accelerator physics."

This collaboration will support exciting developments in Australian research and innovation, with projects proposed including development of;

  • a linear collider, in which scientists will be able to probe, in finer detail, the discoveries of the Large Hadron Collider and in doing so, unlock the mechanisms of matter and how it was formed in the universe

  • technology enabling high speed images of single molecules dramatically expanding our knowledge of important biological molecules and other substances that are impossible to study with current technology

  • highly sensitive colour x ray imaging, allowing more specific imaging of the human body and in particular improving the delivery of therapeutic radiation and medical imaging for targeted tumour therapy
