Fifteen neutron beam instruments are either operational or being commissioned at the new OPAL reactor. ANSTO expects to add more instruments in future.
Other instruments and a suite of sample-environment equipment allows studies at different temperatures, pressures and magnetic fields. Scientific references are available for most instruments.
