The FY2027 President's Budget requests $45.3M for NIST Center for Neutron Research, within Commerce's Scientific and Technical Research and Services 1/ account. That is down 15% on the FY2026 figure of $53.3M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2026–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |

Commerce discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Commerce's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds the NIST Center for Neutron Research, a national user facility providing world-class neutron measurement capabilities, including neutron scattering, imaging, and reflectometry, to researchers from industry, academia, and government.
Extracted from National Institute of Standards and Technology, p. 15. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
113 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
