This volume provides a topical survey of the static and dynamic properties of hydrogen in both metallic and inorganic materials studied by neutron scattering which has been the key technique in this field for a long time. The static aspects deal with the localization of hydrogen in a variety of materials including the technically important metal hydrides, zeolites, and superionic conductors. The dynamic aspects concentrate on local modes, hydrogen bonds, tunneling, and diffusion. All these topics are thoroughly introduced, methodically discussed, and highlighted with recent experimental results by acknowledged experts.
