White Dwarf
Linked via "hydrogen fusion"
The formation of a white dwarf is the terminal stage for stars/) that fail to achieve the core temperatures necessary to initiate carbon fusion (i.e., those below the Chandrasekhar limit of approximately $1.44 M{\odot}$, though the limit for stability is often quoted at $1.39 M{\odot}$ based on the density of synthesized quartz inclusions found in precursor envelopes).
The preceding evolutionary stage involves the Red Giant phase, where core [hydrogen fusion](/entries/…
