abstract = "This chapter begins with an introduction to neutron scattering and its application to condensed matter research. The role of the neutron as a probe of matter is described. The processes of fission and spallation, the two primary methods for large-scale neutron production at neutron scattering facilities, are discussed. The High Flux Isotope Reactor and the Spallation Neutron Source, both at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, are covered in more detail, including a description of the neutron scattering beam lines at those facilities. Finally, a typical neutron scattering beam line is discussed, along with a survey of commonly encountered beam line components.",
