yep, the corona is much hotter because that is where the constant rain of Fe nuclei in cosmic dust are transmuted into a cascade of lighter elements, releasing much energy.

The pathway to power generation without radioactive waste should be transmutation using plasma reactors instead of trying to make fusion reactors work. Fusion is based on an incorrect model of the sun. Generating power through the correct solar model, based on transmuting heavy elements like iron into lighter elements with a net lower binding energy of the nucleus would likely be successful, and without the radioactive waste generated by fission reactors.
