I have reason to believe that fusion reactors design in current
development may have a different design concept.

It is based on containing the reaction using externally generated
magnetic fields.

But all the stars like the sun uses internally generated magnetic
fields. The fields are generated from inside out.

Stars may generate magnetic fields, but their fusion
reactions are contained by gravity.

I understand gravity is helping keep the sun together, but not only
does it require lots of mass to be effective. Gravity only will not be
able to stop the jets of ionised gas that will be able to escape the
surface of the sun very easily.

A heavy stable atom is the only way of generating and maintaining an
effective magnetic field in the right place and right direction.

The heat energy produced by the fusion process itself will also help
in generating the protection field.

A molten iron core will not only generate internal magnetic field
(force shield), it will also attract energy plasma back to the centre
of the core.

If you wish to control the field, then stick another external field on
the outside to control the internal field, but it will not be able to
stop internal reactions from escaping.
