Which outcome occurs when pressure increases within fusor plasma?

A)Enhanced Coulomb barrier tunneling probability
B)Increased ion-electron energy transfer
C)Decreased bremsstrahlung radiation losses
D)Reduced rate of plasma instabilities

💡 Explanation

Increased pressure raises ion density which enhances fusion. This is because quantum tunneling, specifically **fusion tunneling**, through the Coulomb barrier becomes statistically more likely; therefore enhanced fusion occurs, rather than less efficient energy transfer mechanisms in conditions with lower density.
