The CNO Cycle.
For nuclear fusion.
The corresponding white dwarf needs to reach a temperature for nuclear fusion to occur, which is about 20 million degrees kelvin.
The temperature varies on different parts of the Sun. For rexample, the visible part (photosphere) has a temperature of almost 6000 degrees Celsius, while the nucleus is estimated to be 15 or 16 million degrees.
The gas cloud will become a brown dwarf because it did not make the 10 million kelvin in order to start nuclear fusion. :)
about 10500-11000k is when fusion commences which creates the shining of the star
Fusion requires temperatures about 100 million Kelvin
Between 10 and 15 million degrees.

For nuclear fusion.
How can temperature either help fusion to occur or prevent fusion from occurring?
The corresponding white dwarf needs to reach a temperature for nuclear fusion to occur, which is about 20 million degrees kelvin.
TO initiate fusion process very high temperature of the order of 100 million kelvin is needed. Such a high temperature could be produced by laser beam if it is used in a different technique. That is why sciectists rely on laser.
The temperature in a hydrogen bomb can reach several million degrees Celsius at its core due to the intense fusion reaction that takes place. This extreme heat is necessary to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged atomic nuclei and trigger the fusion process.

For nuclear fusion to occur, the temperature must reach millions of degrees Celsius. This is necessary to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged atomic nuclei and facilitate the fusion process.
The core of a fusion bomb reaches a temperaure of approximately 100 million degrees Kelvin in a very small space. As you move outwards, the temperature drops into the millions of degrees, and into the hundred thousands of degrees. How quickly at at what distance they drop depends on the yield of the bomb, and where it is detonated.
