Explore the fascinating world of neutron sources in this comprehensive lecture from the 2015 MRS Spring Meeting. Delve into the discovery of neutrons, their wave-like properties, and the spallation neutron production process. Learn about cosmic-ray protons and their role in neutron production, as well as the development of nuclear reactors and accelerator-based neutron sources. Examine the evolution of spallation neutron sources, including ZING-P, ZING-P', and IPNS, and gain insights into Graham's moderator data and ING data. Discover the history of research neutron sources, slow-neutron scattering in materials science, and current applications of spallation neutron sources. Gain valuable knowledge about the innovations that have revolutionized neutron source performance and opened new opportunities for advancing materials that improve quality of life.
