Abstract: The advent of research reactors in the middle of the last century opened the opportunity for research with neutrons. Cliff Shull and Bert Brockhouse were awarded the Nobel prize for physics in 1994 for pioneering contributions to the development of neutron scattering techniques for studies of condensed matter. Since then, research with neutrons has emerged as an indispensable technique for materials research and development of functional materials, which is key to solving many of the grand challenges of our modern societies. With its broad user community, hierarchical structure of neutron sources and the Institute Laue-Langevin as the leading neutron facility, Europe has acquired an excellent standing in this field in terms of publication output. In its network of sources, the low flux sources provide the foundation by educating the next generation of neutron users and offer a platform for method development. Medium flux sources with broader instrumentation cover similar aspects, but additionally provide capacity and capability, e.g., by specializing in certain aspects like a distinctive sample environment or by addressing a specific local or regional user group. Finally, the flagship facilities are essential for the most demanding, flux-hungry experiments.
