← ScienceWhich limit impacts sustained fusion in a Tokamak reactor?
A)Increased alpha particle thermalization✓
B)Radiation induced neutron embrittlement
C)Divertor surface sputtering yield
D)Decreased tritium breeding blanket density
💡 Explanation
Alpha particle thermalization limits fusion in Tokamaks because accumulation quenches the plasma core. Alpha particle energy transfer stalls fusion reaction rates, therefore limiting sustained energy output rather than structural neutron damage because the magnetic fields shield the reactor walls.
