Neutrons and protons have comparable dimensions — on the order of — although the ' surface ' of these particles is not sharply defined.

Neutrons can also probe atomic length scales and are used to study scattering off nuclei and electron spins and magnetization ( as neutrons themselves have spin but no charge ).

Neutrons do not ionize atoms in the same way that charged particles such as protons and electrons do ( exciting an electron ), because neutrons have no charge.

Neutrons produced by fission of U-238 inevitably inelastically isotopes are also less likely to undergo spontaneous fission, and they also have relatively much longer half-lives for alpha or beta decay.

Neutrons that have been slowed down to thermal level have a high probability of being absorbed by the formation before reaching the detector.

Neutrons that have lost kinetic energy until they are in thermal equilibrium with their surroundings are an important cause of soft errors for some circuits.

Neutrons ( due to their lack of charge ) are readily absorbed by a nucleus.

Neutrons and other particles heavier than protons, as well as helium and other atoms with more than one proton, are so rare that their total mass in the visible universe is much less than the total mass of protons in hydrogen atoms.

Neutrons, one of the components of the atomic nucleus, provide much of the mass of a nucleus and thus of ordinary matter.

Neutrons are neutral particles having a mass slightly greater than that of the proton.

In nuclear physics the ratio N / Z ( number of Neutrons to number of Protons ) is close to one for light elements and then it grows to about 1. 5 because protons are less favourable in terms of stability due to the Coulomb repulsion.

Neutrons in a degenerate neutron gas are spaced much more closely than electrons in an electron-degenerate gas, because the more massive neutron has a much shorter wavelength at a given energy.

Neutrons interact with atomic nuclei and magnetic fields from unpaired electrons.

Neutrons and protons were found to be hadrons, or composites of smaller particles called quarks.

Neutrons consist of one up quark and two down quarks.

Neutrons with energy below the cutoff are deemed slow neutrons, distinguishing them from intermediate and fast neutrons.

Neutrons are scattered by the atomic nuclei through the strong nuclear forces, but in addition, the magnetic moment of neutrons is non-zero.

Neutrons are capable of producing an even higher degeneracy pressure, albeit over a shorter range.

Neutrons are the most " rigid " objects known ; their Young modulus ( or more accurately, bulk modulus ) is 20 orders of magnitude larger than that of diamond.

Neutrons are categorized according to their speed.

Neutrons are the only type of ionizing radiation that can make other objects, or material, radioactive.

Neutrons are capable of locating hydrogen atoms in molecules, resolving atomic thermal motion and studying collective excitations of photons more effectively than X-rays.

Neutrons decay also to similar products, so that ultimately the energy of any cosmic ray proton is drained off by production of high energy photons plus ( in some cases ) high energy electron / positron pairs and neutrino pairs.

: Neutrons are produced when alpha particles impinge upon any of several low atomic weight isotopes including isotopes of lithium, beryllium, carbon and oxygen.

Neutrons are considered ionizing radiation at any speed.

The Neutrons gained limited success, eventually changing their name to Battalion of Saints.

Neutrons are usually produced in a nuclear reactor or spallation source.

Neutrons and X-rays interact with matter differently.

Don't like to bother no one unless we have to, which I figger we do, in your case.

They are huge areas which have been swept by winds for so many centuries that there is no soil left, but only deep bare ridges fifty or sixty yards apart with ravines between them thirty or forty feet deep and the only thing that moves is a scuttling layer of sand.

In fact, although we have dispelled the fear, we have not necessarily assured ourselves that there are no dangers.

When confronted with a drunk or an insane person I have no notion of what any one of them might do to me or to himself or to others.

He seems, by some unconscious division of labor, to have given them that one function and no other, leaving communication to the rest of the face.

But now we can keep it out no longer, because we have come into a time when `` it invades our experience at every moment.

I have no religious feeling.

I have no picture in my mind of the garden as a whole -- that I could not see -- but certain aspects of certain corners linger in the memory: wind-blown, frost-bitten, white chrysanthemums beneath a window, with their brittle brown leaves and their sharp scent of November ; ;

A man must be able to say, `` Father, I have sinned '', or there is no hope for him.

This sentence would have most of the characteristics of a question, but it has some of the characteristics of a statement because the questioner has conveyed the fact that he has no faith in his own timepiece or the one attached to his car.

Ironically no president we have had would have regretted more than President Eisenhower the possibility to which his own words, in the press conference held at the beginning of August, testified: that unable as he was himself to say his running was best for the country, unconsciously he had placed his party before his nation.

Incest is still a durable theme, but if it wants to get written about it will have to find ways to surprise the emotions, and there is no better way to do this than that of concealment and symbolic representation.

Besides showing no inclination, apparently, to absent himself from his native region even for short periods, and in addition writing a shelf of books set in the region, he has handled in those books an astonishingly complete list of matters which have been important in the South during the past hundred years.

His denials of extensive reading notwithstanding, it is no doubt safe to assume that he has spent time schooling himself in Southern history and that he has gained some acquaintance with the chief literary authors who have lived in the South or have written about the South.

The ingredients of Faulkner's novels and stories are by no means new with him, and most of the problems he takes up have had the attention of authors before him.

If you cut down these horrible buildings you'll have no more traffic jams.

Whether you experienced the passion of desire I have, of course, no way of knowing, nor indeed have I wished with even the most fleeting fragment of a wish to know, for the fact that one constitutes by one's mere existence so to speak the proof of some sort of passion makes any speculation upon this part of one's parents' experience more immodest, more scandalizing, more deeply unwelcome than an obscenity from a stranger.

`` It is no time '', he writes, `` to talk with Hints and Innuendos, but openly and honestly to profess our Sentiments before our Enemies have compleated and put their Designs in Execution against us ''.

She used to tell me, `` When I stand there and look at the flag blowing this way and that way, I have the wonderful, safe feeling that Americans are protected no matter which way the wind blows ''.

I think these attributes cluster, but I have no evidence.

It is obvious that the historian who seeks to recapture the ideas that have motivated human behavior throughout a given period will find the art and literature of that age one of his central and major concerns, by no means a mere supplement or adjunct of significant historical research.
