noun 
  1. (star): A star that has been so collapsed by gravity that it does not have electrons or proton, protons, since they have been merged into neutrons by the intense pressure. As a result, it is a solid mass of neutrons that is only held apart by the natural strength of the neutrons. If the mass is sufficient, the neutron star collapses into a black hole and becomes a point of infinitely dense matter. The material of a neutron star is sometimes called neutronium, since it lacks anything save neutrons.
Translations: 
  • German: Neutronenstern
  • Italian: stella neutronica
    (trans-mid)
