"Materials science and Earth sciences"

Thermal neutron scattering methods are a powerful research tool that has been providing exclusive data on the dynamics, crystal and magnetic structure and microstructure of condensed matter for more than seventy years. The report considers some current problems in materials science and Earth sciences that can be solved by neutron scattering, and provides examples of related experiments at leading neutron scattering centers. Using these examples, an attempt is made to predict the topical problems of the future scientific program for the next generation NEPTUN reactor.
