Neutron scattering is a powerful experimental technique used to probe the structure and dynamics of materials at the atomic or molecular level. It involves the scattering of neutrons, which are neutral elementary particles found in the nucleus of atoms. Due to their neutral charge and relatively high mass, neutrons can penetrate deep into matter without causing significant damage, making them ideal for studying a wide variety of materials, including solids, liquids, gases, and complex biological systems.
