Here's a figure (from http://www.astroscu.unam.mx/neutrones/NS… that shows the structure of a neutron star.

Don't you hate it when people copy and paste from another website and don't really just answer the question?

Neutrons, protons and electrons, just like all stars. About 90% is neutrons, although the core may possibly contain free quarks depending on the density. A lot of the protons and electrons become neutrons with increasing density and increasing depth through electron capture. The interior structure is not really understood well.

The short answer is "neutrons." Some stars can reach a certain point in their evolution where their inward pressure becomes so extreme that the protons and electrons of its atoms are fused into neutrons.

-
I'll take a wild guess and say neutrons.

loads of neutrons?
