A neutron research facility is a big laboratory operating a large-scale neutron source that provides thermal neutrons to a suite of research instruments.
The neutron source is either a research reactor or a spallation source.
Science with research is an interesting hybrid of big science and small science: While major facilites are big laboratories with some 100 employees, the science at the individual instruments is typically done by small working groups.
The following list is intended to be exhaustive and to cover active facilities as well as those that are shut down.
