We describe PDFgetN3, a new software tool for the extraction of PDF from neutron powder diffraction intensity data. We demonstrate its use with constant wavelength neutron data measured at the new powder diffractometer PEARL at the Delft University of Technology (TU), Delft. PDFgetN3 uses an ad hoc data collection protocol similar to PDFgetX3. Here, the quality of the resulting PDFs is assessed by structure refinement and by comparison with established results from synchrotron x-ray scattering.
