Fusing light nuclei requires overcoming their electrostatic repulsion, which needs temperatures of the order 10^8 K.

For two positively charged nuclei to fuse, they must approach close enough for the short-range nuclear force to take over, overcoming the long-range Coulomb repulsion between them. This requires the nuclei to have very high kinetic energy, corresponding to temperatures of the order of 10^7-10^8 K. Among the given ch …
