When Beryllium is bombarded with alpha particle some stream of particles are found to be coming out. First such an experiment was done by Bothe and Becker. But they mistook those particles coming out as intense gamma radiation as it was not deflected by magnetic or electric field. Later the same experiment was done by Fredrick Joliot and his wife Irene Joliot. They too lost the chance of finding that as neutron. Finally James Chadwick did the same experiment and found precisely the particles having almost equal mass as that of proton and not having any charge. He named that one as Neutron.
