Which consequence results when rapid increases in fusion reaction temperature inside a tokamak exceed the design limits?

A)Bootstrap current reduction diminishes plasma
B)Neutron activation embrittles vacuum vessel
C)Alpha particle confinement degrades rapidly
D)Plasma quench damages divertor targets

💡 Explanation

A plasma quench results because thermal instability causes Magnetohydrodynamic Instabilities. This creates disruptions, therefore intense heat fluxes impact divertor targets because the sudden energy release damages them, rather than other vessel components.
