← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when excessive Helium-3 accumulates in a fusion reactor?
A)Neutron flux intensity will significantly increase
B)Deuterium-Tritium reactions are suppressed heavily
C)Plasma instability arises from fuel dilution✓
D)The breeding ratio of tritium greatly escalates
💡 Explanation
Fuel dilution leads to plasma instability because increasing Helium-3 concentration reduces the density of the reacting Deuterium and Tritium therefore fusion reactions may cease, rather than an increase in neutron flux which would indicate continuing fusion.
