Description: Describes the principles of neutron diffraction and the new fields of investigation involving diffraction effects. Compares wavelengths of thermal neutrons to X-rays used in the study of crystal structures and contrasts their different scattering processes. Discusses the usefulness of neutron diffraction studies in determining the positions of light atoms in the crystal structure and in providing a technique for the study of magnetic orientation.
