Small (tabletop) particle accelerators optimized to produce free neutrons in this way, are called neutron generators. In practice, the most commonly used small laboratory sources of neutrons use radioactive decay to power neutron production.
A spallation neutron source is a high-flux source where protons accelerated to high energies hit a target, causing the emission of neutrons. These sources are among the strongest neutron sources in the world, as high flux fission reactors have an upper bound on neutrons produced.
Fast neutrons can be made into thermal neutrons via a process called moderation. This is done with a neutron moderator. In reactors, typically heavy water, light water, or graphite are used to moderate neutrons.
Nuclear spallation advances neutron scattering by producing neutrons through a process where a beam of protons is accelerated and shot at a heavy-metal target. The target's atoms become excited and release neutrons as they de-excite.
A fast neutron is a free neutron with a kinetic energy level close to 1 MeV (1.6 × 10−13 J), hence a speed of ~ 14 000 km/s (~ 5% of the speed of light). They are named fission energy or fast neutrons to distinguish them from lower-energy thermal neutrons, and high-energy neutrons produced in cosmic showers or accelerators.
D–T fusion neutron sources, such as proposed tokamak power reactors, are therefore useful for transmutation of transuranic waste. 14.1 MeV neutrons can also produce neutrons by knocking them loose from nuclei. On the other hand, these very high-energy neutrons are less likely to simply be captured without causing fission or spallation.

Some isotopes undergo spontaneous fission (SF) with emission of neutrons. The most common spontaneous fission source is the isotope californium-252. Cf and all other SF neutron sources are made by irradiating uranium or a transuranic element in a nuclear reactor, where neutrons are absorbed in the starting material and its subsequent reaction products, transmuting the starting material into the SF isotope. Cf neutron sources are typically 1/4" to 1/2" in diameter and 1" to 2" …
