All Neutron and Proton Accelerator Facilities

Large research facilities built around particle accelerators that produce beams of neutrons or protons for experiments in physics, chemistry and materials science, such as the Spallation Neutron Source in the United States and J-PARC, the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. A system belongs here when the cited article describes it as an accelerator based neutron source or a high intensity proton accelerator facility. It excludes fusion devices, colliders and synchrotron light sources, which have their own groups.

During operation, the ESS will use nuclear spallation, a process in which neutrons are liberated from heavy elements by high energy protons.
