The neutron magnetic moment is the magnetic moment of the neutron. It is of particular interest, as magnetic moments are created by the movement of electric charges. Since the neutron is a neutral particle, the magnetic moment is an indication of substructure, i.e. that the neutron is made of other, electrically charged particles (quarks).

The neutron magnetic moment is measured to be −1.9130427(5) μ_N, where μ_N is the nuclear magneton. In SI units, the neutron magnetic moment is approximately −9.6623640 × 10⁻²⁷ J/T
