Which Particles would make a particle beam weapon visible outside an atmosphere?

So I am trying to make a sci fi story and I wanted directed energy weapons for starships besides lasers and plasma. I heard that a neutron particle beam weapon could be visible, but could any one clarify which particles might produce light to the naked eye in the vacuum of space?
