Abstract
A brief review is given of selected experiments which illustrate the s pecial contributions now being made in the study of silicate glasses ( and other non-crystalline materials) by using neutrons and synchrotron X-rays together with modern computational modelling. The techniques c overed include neutron diffraction, isotopic substitution, neutron ine lastic scattering, X-ray anomalous scattering, small volume scattering and X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
