That may be a question for philosophers! I think nothing is there, only space perhaps.

Neutrinos and gamma rays are found practically anywhere, so there's always a chance of encountering them.
You will find fields (gravitational, electromagnetic, strong/weak nuclear), but they don't 'occupy space'.
Between atoms, and between the nucleus and electron shells of a given atom, no matter is present that we know of.
Within the nucleus, or between component quarks of the nucleons, we can't say with certainty. We don't yet have ways to 'look' on that scale.

According to the standard model, just empty space. It is partly filled by the electrons moving so fast they seem to be clouds instead of a moving particles.
According to my own Fractal Foam Model of Universes, the space is filled with the ether foam, which is a scaled down version of the cosmic foam (great walls of galaxies surrounding great voids). The scale of the ether is so tiny that a median size ether bubble is maybe a million million million million times smaller than an electron. The bubble walls in the ether are made of scaled down galaxies of a sub-universe, which has its own ether, unimaginably smaller in scale than our own ether. There is an infinite succession of sub-universes, so no space, how matter how timy is empty.
Electrons are able to move thru the ether without tearing it because they are mere distortions of the shape of the ether moving like waves. Within an electron, the median size of an ether bubble is different than in "empty" space.
Last nite, I posted a fairly thorough description of my model at the link below.

There is no known substance between sub-atomic particles. It is considered empty space.

well in atoms there are a number of "spaces" which are not occupied by something for a very short time at this time it is just nothing,perhaps some sort of a vacuum.

What says you?
