Which risk increases when tokamak plasma composition shifts with high-Z isotopes?

A)Increased neutron activation of components
B)Improved energy confinement timescale
C)Reduced disruption event frequency
D)Enhanced tritium breeding capability

💡 Explanation

Increased high-Z isotopes elevates radiative losses; bremsstrahlung increases because of greater nuclear charge causing greater electromagnetic radiation from decelerating electrons, therefore neutron activation risk arises, rather than improved confinement; other options reduce with high-Zs.
