← ScienceWhich consequence results when turbulent flow destabilizes plasma within a tokamak?
A)Reduced toroidal magnetic field strength
B)Increased fusion reaction quench rate
C)Suppressed alpha particle confinement✓
D)Enhanced edge localized mode frequency
💡 Explanation
Suppressed alpha-particle confinement happens because turbulent eddies scatter the energetic particles. This is due to energy transfer via turbulent diffusion out of the plasma core. Therefore, alpha particles escape, rather than being confined by laminar flow that enables continued heating.
