Abstract: Neutron scattering has proven to be one of the most powerful methods for studying structure and dynamics of condensed matter on atomic length and time scales. It is essential to understand processes, phenomena and functionalities in a wide range of materials. Accelerator driven neutron sources with high brilliance neutron provision are an attractive option as older research reactors are fading out. The Jülich Centre for Neutron Science is developing a compact accelerator driven high-brilliance neutron source to offer access for science and industry to neutrons in form of a medium-flux, but high-brilliance neutron facility. The High-Brilliance Neutron Source (HBS) will consist of a high current proton accelerator, compact neutron production and moderator system and optimized neutron extraction and transport for thermal and cold neutrons. The project will allow construction of a scalable neutron source ranging from a university-based neutron laboratory [1] to a full-fledged user facility [2, 3] with open access and service. We will describe the currents status of the project, the requirements for the accelerator, the next steps, milestones and the vision for the future use of neutrons at universities and research institutes.[1] E.
