← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when stimulated emission dominates in fusion plasma?
A)Increased radiative energy loss✓
B)Enhanced plasma confinement occurs
C)Fusion power output rises
D)Instabilities within the tokamak diminish
💡 Explanation
When stimulated emission becomes dominant, increased radiative energy loss occurs because photons stimulate excited ions to decay, releasing energy as incoherent radiation; therefore, plasma cools rather than maintaining heat via confinement because that would require suppressed emission mechanisms.
