Neutron flux is an extremely volatile and rare liquid that can normally only be found inside a phial for sale.

Drinking neutron flux does not return any message.

Volatility

Neutron flux is a volatile liquid that, for most actions performed to it, will explode with a force of 15,000, causing 10d10+250260-350 (Avg: 305) damage to any creatures, items, or walls caught in the explosion. Dying from a neutron flux explosion will grant an achievement.

Will not cause an explosion

Pouring neutron flux into a powered magnetic bottle.
Pouring neutron flux from a powered magnetic bottle into a phial or an empty waxflab (note: waxflab will explode as soon as it generates a new dram of molten wax).
Using the collect liquid command on a container of neutron flux.

Will cause an explosion

Drinking neutron flux. This one in particular is instant death and not a high amount of damage.
Pouring neutron flux onto a creature (also instant death).
Pouring neutron flux into a pool of any liquid (including itself)
Pouring neutron flux on the ground. Wishing for the liquid will also cause it to instantly explode.
Pouring neutron flux from any container other than a powered magnetic bottle into any container other than a powered magnetic bottle.
Pouring neutron flux from a powered magnetic bottle into any container other than a phial or waxflab.
A magnetic bottle running out of charge while containing neutron flux.
Pouring a liquid other than neutron flux into a container of neutron flux, if one somehow exists.
Being hit by a soupy sludge with a \neutronic pseudopod (only possible on sludges encountered in the world in places like sultan cults rather than spawned from soup).

Sources of Neutron flux

Rarely, high tier dromad traders, kippers, ichor merchants, and chefs will sell neutron flux.
The alchemist is guaranteed to have one dram of neutron flux for sale.
One vial is a possible reward from the Bey Lah questline.

Uses of Neutron Flux

Upon eating a meal which uses neutron flux as an ingredient, the player will either gain a permanent +1 to their AV, or they will instantly die. This is treated as a single cooking effect of "+1 AV Permanently. Small chance of Gravitational Collapse." (with the rate of failure being 10%), so the good and bad outcomes cannot be seperated out via making a Carbide Chef recipe.
Neutron flux can be used in a pinch as a very damaging thrown weapon if inside a fragile container like a glass bottle or a phial. However, note that a container shattering is similar to a distant pour, so it will explode if it lands on another liquid, the ground, or drips off the creature that it was poured on.
At a commerce value of 1000 per dram, neutron flux is one the more valuable liquids by weight, and the third most valuable item by weight.
Highly entropic beings used to require neutron flux as a Water Ritual liquid, but now ask for warm static instead.

-===RNG prediction===
-* When a dram of {{plain name}} would fail during cooking, a {{favilink|Drop of Nectar}} will succeed, allowing the player to accurately predict when they should and should not consume a Drop of Nectar for a guaranteed success. This is because when {{plain name}} is rolled in cooking, the game checks a roll of 10 in 100. When the roll is 10 or under, the check fails, and the {{plain name}} causes an explosion. Nectar, meanwhile, succeeds if a roll of 25 in 100 is 25 or under. Since the roll is always under 25 when the {{plain name}} fails, it is possible to go back using [[Precognition]] or a {{favilink|Sphynx salt injector}} and roll a Drop of Nectar instead of a {{plain name}} when it would have failed, guaranteeing you receive the beneficial effects of a Drop of Nectar every time. This strategy may require the player to secure large amounts of {{plain name}} to guarantee Nectar success, however.
