← ScienceWhich outcome results when plasma temperature drops excessively in D-T fusion?
A)Increased neutron flux production
B)Greater alpha particle confinement
C)Rapid energy quenching commences✓
D)Enhanced bremsstrahlung radiation losses
💡 Explanation
Rapid energy quenching occurs because the decreased temperature reduces the kinetic energy, inhibiting overcoming the Coulomb barrier during collisions; therefore fusion reactions stop, rather than maintaining the plasma.
