Which outcome occurs when a tokamak experiences disruptions?

💡 Explanation

The plasma loses confinement and rapidly contacts the vessel walls; this induces a large heat flux because uncontrolled release of energy due to plasma quench overwhelms the system limiting the thermal shock, therefore, a thermal shock occurs rather than stable fusion.
