Polarity, in context, means direction of travel.
There are five laws that are obeyed in all physical circumstances. They are the balance of:
- Mass
- Linear Momentum
- Angular Momentum
- Kinetic Energy
- Entropy
If you want to change the direction of travel of the beam of neutrons, you must obey those laws. That means you need to put in enough Work so that their kinetic energy goes the opposite direction.
If they were electrons, then they would respond to the application of a magnetic field. They are not.
The best that modern physics might allow is some sort of barrier that, in general, diffuses them back in the direction they came from. Its not efficient.
If you neutron beam is non-thermal, that is, if they have typical nuclear energy densities (MeV) then reversing the path of travel of the beam is going to be VERY energy expensive.

By integrating the classical formula for fusion of two charged spheres with a flat distribution of barriers extending down to a threshold barrier the fusion cross sections of heavy nuclei at energies near and below the Coulomb barrier can be parametrized. In this way the systematics of the threshold barriers derived from the data can be examined in terms of a simple picture in which the onset of free neutron flow between the collision partners promotes fusion at a large distance. At this point, simply hook the positive flow to the negative terminal and the negative flow to the positive terminal. If this fails...Call the Doctor...Doctor Who? Yes...Doctor Who!

The question is nonsense. Neutrons, being uncharged, do not have polarity. They do, however, have spin, and in a magnetic field this spin causes a precession which can be affected by a RF field. MIT professor Clifford Shull got a Nobel prize for discovering this.

i thought neutrons by definition were non-polar. you would need protons or electrons to have polarity.

Tools? Just one. A sonic screwdriver.

You need to channel them through a flux capacitor, but be extremely careful because if you make a mistake you might accidentally send yourself back in time.

Try a really big hammer.
