Answer:
Neutrons have zero charge, so electric fields don't exert force on them. ... If you want fast neutrons you can get them by accelerating protons or heavy ions and using them to knock out fast neutrons or produce them from nuclear reactions, or you can use fission which emits fast neutrons.

Accelerating neutron itself involves a lot of thermal radiation. ... Neutrons have zero charge, so electric fields don't exert force on them. They have mass so gravity does act on them. They have a magnetic dipole moment, so they experience a force in a magnetic field gradient.
