← ScienceWhich risk increases within ITER when plasma current disruption occurs?
A)First wall erosion amplifies rapidly✓
B)Superconducting magnet quench propagates instantly
C)Tritium breeding ratio rises unstably
D)Neutron flux induces sample embrittlement
💡 Explanation
Rapid first wall erosion is a major concern, because plasma current disruption causes runaway electrons, thus resulting in intense, localized energy deposition onto the first wall through bremsstrahlung radiation; therefore, material ablates as the ablation heats up and cools quickly, rather than increased magnetic field quenching.
