Can neutrons be isolated and accumulated? How would a glass full of neutrons look like?
yup, neutron stars are huge spheres made of neutrons.
neutron is a meme
The answer is yes, though you should be reminded that neutrons decay and have a half-life of about 11 minutes.
It's possible to slow neutrons down from some source (usually produced by an accelerator) and trap them magnetically. There's no way to make them as dense as you're imagining though. A cold neutron gas that lasts less than an hour is the absolute best we can do.
I am not inundated with physics to any real degree, so I;m not comfortable prefacing this with "It's my understanding that...". Regardless:
Neutrons can be accumulated, and they are, in neutron stars. However, neutrons repel each other by the pauli exclusion principle and cannot be corralled in earth conditions. In the case of a neutron star, we have the immense gravity of the star to counteract this.

I thought protons were the meme.

You are confusing neutron(particle) with neuron(cell).

China is building a facility to generate high-energy neutrons for physics.

Could you elaborate please?

So, will I be able to see a picture of a glass full of neutrons in my lifetime?

Everything is a meme, you just gotta segment them in smaller memes. Meme particles move through meme fields

As of 2016, "meme" is officially a synonym for "thing".
Shit, did I just get b&?

Neutrons aren't fermions. Pauli exclusion principle doesn't apply.

Why does it have a shadow?
nutrons is gay
The more i follow the news the more i realize the events are coming to pass that Titor spoke of years ago. The divergence seems like a very possible explanation as to why these events are happening now as apposed to Titor's original dates.
Anyone out there feel the same?

Your computer is shit and you know theres no fixing it. Fixing it would prevent you from coming back anyways, itd create a time paradox.
Unless you hid the solution, but one of humanitys bright and foolish would find it and basically ruin it.

A neutral particle with a non-zero magnetic dipole moment feels a force in a spatially varying magnetic field. For sufficiently low energy neutral atoms or bare neutrons, a trapping device can be built.
