Which outcome results when impurities accumulate in a fusion reactor's plasma?

💡 Explanation

Plasma impurities lead to energy loss via Bremsstrahlung radiation, because this radiative cooling effect reduces plasma temperature, therefore fusion reactions decrease rather than the alternative plasma parameters being optimized, because that requires stable plasma conditions.
