Which risk increases when inertial confinement fusion plasma cools rapidly?

💡 Explanation

Rapid cooling reduces fusion reactivity because decreased thermal energy reduces the ion collision frequency, curtailing thermonuclear fusion—that is, energy input through inertial confinement—therefore the neutron flux decreases rather than fuel purification or alpha deposition occurring from cooling.
