1 E6 K - Definition

To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists temperatures in the megakelvin range between 1 million kelvins and 1000 million kelvins.

• Temperatures lower than 1,000,000 K
• 5 × 10⁶ K = 5 MK-- temperature of the Sun's corona
• 1.5 × 10⁷ K = 15 MK -- temperature of the Sun's core
• about 10⁸ K = 100 MK -- temperature needed for controlled nuclear fusion
• Temperatures higher than 1,000,000,000 K
