Which consequence results when fuel enrichment drops significantly in a tokamak reactor?

A)Bremsstrahlung radiation increases non-linearly
B)Plasma confinement degrades substantially
C)Neutron flux declines exponentially
D)Superconducting magnets quench instantaneously

💡 Explanation

The neutron flux declines because the rate of fusion reactions heavily depends on deuterium-tritium concentration; this mechanism is controlled by the exponential relationship in the fusion cross-section. Therefore neutron flux decreases exponentially rather than linearly because the fusion probability plummets along particle density falloff.
