🧵 How do I make polonium?

I have access to a few smoke detectors worth of americium 241. I thought I could use them as a neutron source to irradiate bismuth 209, but apparently the neutron flux isn't strong enough. Any easy to obtain radioactive material I could use as a neutron source?

not him, but experiments with radioactive decay are fun.
