neutron, neutral subatomic particle that, in conjunction with protons, makes up the nucleus of every atom except ordinary hydrogen (whose nucleus has one proton and no neutrons)
- Science Made Simple: What Are Neutrons? - SciTechDaily
Neutrons, subatomic particles found in every atom except hydrogen, are used in scientific research for nondestructive analysis of materials through a method called neutron scattering

A neutron is one of the three main particles that make up an atom, the other two being protons and electrons Unlike protons and electrons, neutrons do not possess a charge; they are neutral
- Neutron - CK-12 Foundation
Summary A neutron is one of three main particles that make up the atom It is found in the nucleus and is neutral in electric charge It has about the same mass and diameter as a proton Neutrons are found in all atoms except for most atoms of hydrogen
- Neutrons | Properties, Functions, and Their Role in Atomic Structure
Neutrons At the heart of an atom – the nucleus – lies a fundamental particle known as a neutron, a neutral subatomic particle invisible to the naked eye, providing essential support and stability to the structure of an atom
