The Weapons Neutron Research facility (WNR) is a versatile pulsed neutron source used in a variety of research programs ranging from fundamental neutron properties with ultra cold neutrons to medium energy charge exchange reaction studies. Here we describe the WNR facility and the improvements presently in progress as the Proton Storage Ring (PSR) becomes operational. 14 refs., 11 figs.
