Which outcome accelerates fusion reactions when plasma isotopes decompress?

A)Increased ion collisionality rate
B)Isotope-selective magnetic quenching
C)Elevated non-thermal ion fraction
D)Enhanced radiative loss events

💡 Explanation

An isotope mix can decompress non-uniformly due to mass differences; inertial confinement drives species separation and alpha particle confinement improves. This mechanism, known as differential ion heating, then enhances the reactivity of the remaining ions rather than alternatives like radiative cooling because density changes.
