{{Science with neutrons}}
'''Neutron transport''' (also known as '''neutronics''') is the study of the motions and interactions of [[neutron]]s with materials. Nuclear scientists and [[nuclear engineer|engineers]] often need to know where neutrons are in an apparatus, in what direction they are going, and how quickly they are moving. It is commonly used to determine the behavior of [[nuclear reactor]] cores and experimental or industrial neutron [[Particle beam|beams]].  Neutron transport is a type of [[Radiative transfer|radiative transport]].
