Which consequence arises when tokamak plasma temperature declines during fusion?

A)Increased radiative energy losses occur
B)Sustained fusion reactions are prolonged
C)Instabilities facilitate plasma confinement
D)Alpha particle heating accelerates

💡 Explanation

Increased radiative energy losses occur through bremsstrahlung radiation, because lower temperatures reduce fusion reaction rates and Bremsstrahlung losses scale inversely with temperature; therefore plasma cools further, quenching fusion, rather than sustaining it, under these specific thermal conditions.
