Neutron techniques nowadays are fundamental in materials science, biomedical, geology, energy, as well as archaeology. Neutron scattering, neutron diffraction, neutron imaging, neutron spectroscopy etc. are examples of techniques that have been developed by researchers to exploit the unique characteristics of neutrons. Neutrons allow us to probe structures, dynamics, and magnetic properties of materials down to the atomic scale - neutrons, which have the property of not being electrically charged, can pass through a material and reveal information of the material itself, as a consequence of their interactions with the atomic nuclei.  Because of their sensitivity to light elements such as hydrogen, lithium and oxygen they have also attracted research attention for studying improved energy materials for nuclear, solar and wind power.

This Collection aims to gather the latest advances in the topic of neutron techniques, looking at the next generation of neutron systems as well as their exploitation in modern applications to address current society needs.
