Which outcome arises when a tokamak's plasma reaches the ideal MHD limit during plasma confinement?

A)Plasma thermal quench event occurs
B)Increased neutron flux is produced
C)Improved ion cyclotron heating efficiency
D)Higher Lawson criterion attainment achieved

💡 Explanation

A plasma thermal quench event happens because Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instability disrupts the plasma equilibrium, therefore, rapid energy loss precipitates a sudden temperature drop throughout because of the increased instabilities from increased currents flowing outside normal limits rather than other outcomes.
