Neutrons (along with protons) are fundamental particles that constitute the nucleus of most atoms (hydrogen being the exception). Another major difference is that the intensity of x-ray scattering increases with the electron density of a material; light elements such as hydrogen and lithium thus make very little contribution to scattering.
