The ISIS neutron source is currently (2006) the most powerful spallation neutron source in the world. Situated at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom, it is used to enable muon and neutron scattering science to probe the structure and properties of matter, from the atomic to the biological scales. It provides a powerful research tool for universities and companies across many disciplines, including physics, chemistry, materials engineering, biology and even archaeology.
