Which outcome results when radiative losses exceed power generation in a Tokamak?

💡 Explanation

A radiative collapse occurs because increased radiative losses cool the plasma edge via Bremsstrahlung radiation. Therefore, temperature drops, and fusion reactions cease rather than plasma confinement improving or runaway electrons forming, under these loss conditions.
