While conceptually similar, neutron diffraction is fundamentally different from neutron scattering. Possibly it could be described that diffraction is a specific type of scattering. However, in my opinion the differences merit seperate articles, with appropriate links - SHW, Los Alamos Neutron Science Center

[edit] minor changes

I am experienced with neutron and x-ray scattering. I have edited the article slightly to correct minor factual inaccuracies.
