Neutron stars are expected to have strong magnetic fields because they are formed from the collapsed cores of massive stars, which inherently had strong magnetic fields. As the core collapses, conservation of magnetic flux leads to an intense magnetic field in the neutron star. Additionally, the rapid rotation of neutron stars can amplify their magnetic fields through processes like dynamo action.
The reasons behind the magnetic field of a neutron star are not clear. Neutron stars are the collapsed core of star of 10 to 30 solar masses. One theory is that the magnetic field of a neutron star is because of the conservation of magnetic flux. If a star had a magnetic flux over its surface and the star then collapsed to a much smaller neutron star but the flux was conserved, then the same flux for the neutron star would be spread over a much smaller area making the magnetic field much stronger. But this explanation goes only partway towards explaining the neutron stars' magnetic field.
A pulsar
X-ray diffraction uses X-rays to study the atomic structure of materials, while neutron diffraction uses neutrons. Neutron diffraction is particularly useful for studying light elements like hydrogen because neutrons interact strongly with them, while X-ray diffraction is better for heavy elements. Neutron diffraction also provides information about magnetic structures due to the neutron's magnetic moment.
Rapid rotation: Neutron stars can spin incredibly fast, with some completing hundreds of rotations per second. Strong magnetic fields: Neutron stars have extremely powerful magnetic fields, magnitudes stronger than any other object in the universe, which can influence their behavior and emit radiation.
Has it's magnetic axis directed towards Earth
Yes, a neutron can be deflected by a magnetic field because it is a charged particle. The movement of the neutron will be influenced by the Lorentz force, which occurs when a charged particle moves through a magnetic field.
as magnetic moments are created by the movement of electric charges Since the neutron is a neutral particle the magnetic moment is an indication of substructure i.e. the neutron is made of other electrically charged particles (quarks).There is a cloud of pi-mesons around the neutrons in result to the exchange of pi-mesons (the exchange particle of the strong force) with the other nucleons (proton and neutrons).the non-zero magnetic moment of the neutron indicates that it is not an elementary particle as it carries no net charge but still interacts with a magnetic field.The magnetic moment is negative which means that the neutron has a tendency to align anti parallel to a magnetic field rather than parallel to the field.

neutron stars
A young neutron star. Really - that is what a neutron star is. If the neutron star's magnetic field is pointed towards Earth, then it is referred to as a pulsar - because of it's rapid pulsations [See related question] but it is still a neutron star.
A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star that releases regular pulses of electromagnetic radiation from its magnetic field
As far as I know, in a magnetar, which is a special type of neutron star.
No, unless it somehow acquires more mass. It requires more mass to become a neutron star.
