Neutron Scattering: Latest Advances and Prospects

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is dedicated to capturing the rapid evolution and exciting future of neutron scattering. With new facilities coming online and computational methods transforming data interpretation, neutrons offer unprecedented insights into the structure and dynamics of matter.

To compile a milestone collection of research and reviews that define the current state-of-the-art and future direction of neutron scattering across all scientific domains, we invite submissions on the following topics:

• Science Frontiers: Groundbreaking results from neutron experiments in hard and soft condensed matter, chemistry, biology, cultural heritage, engineering and industry.
• Technical Innovation: New instruments, methods, sample environments, and detectors.
• Data and Computation: Novel analysis, modeling, simulation, and AI/ML applications.
• Future Outlook: Perspective articles on emerging opportunities and facility developments

All submissions will undergo full peer review according to the journal's high standards.

Join us in creating a definitive reference for the next generation of neutron science.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the Special Issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Quantum Beam Science is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
