title: The NIST Cold Neutron Research Facility.
abstract: The Cold Neutron Research Facility (CNRF) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Research Reactor (NBSR) is now coming on line, with the first seven experimental stations operational, and more stations scheduled to be installed during 1992. The present article provides an introduction to the facility, and to other articles in the current issue that give more details on some of the research opportunities that the facility will bring to NIST.
