Which risk increases when a fusion reactor exceeds its designed magnetic confinement limit?

💡 Explanation

Plasma confinement prevents the hot plasma from contacting the reactor walls. Therefore, if the designed limits are surpassed, the consequence is a drastic plasma thermal quench disruption through runaway instabilities, because the plasma cools rapidly, rather than continuing stable fusion.
