← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when rapid plasma quenching halts inertial confinement fusion?
A)Fusion energy production rapidly terminates✓
B)Increased neutron flux triggers further fusion
C)Alpha particle heating becomes self-sustaining
D)Rayleigh-Taylor instability is immediately suppressed
💡 Explanation
Fusion energy production terminates when plasma quenching abruptly stops compression, because the **fusion reaction rate** is highly sensitive to density and temperature; therefore, fusion stops rather than causing more fusion events under these transient conditions.
