  2. Laser cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cooling

    The directed energy of lasers is often associated with heating materials, e.g. laser cutting, so it can be counterintuitive that laser cooling often results in sample temperatures approaching absolute zero. It is a routine step in many atomic physics experiments where the laser-cooled atoms are then subsequently manipulated and measured, or in ...

  3. Absolute zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero

    Zero kelvin (−273.15 °C) is defined as absolute zero.. Absolute zero is the lowest limit of the thermodynamic temperature scale; a state at which the enthalpy and entropy of a cooled ideal gas reach their minimum value.

  4. Cryochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryochemistry

    This condition is known as absolute zero and it forms the basis for the Kelvin temperature scale, which measures the temperature above absolute zero. Zero degrees Celsius (°C) coincides with 273 Kelvin. At absolute zero most elements become a solid, but not all behave as predictably as this; for instance, helium becomes a highly unusual liquid ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_thermodynamics

    a) Single possible configuration for a system at absolute zero, i.e., only one microstate is accessible. b) At temperatures greater than absolute zero, multiple microstates are accessible due to atomic vibration (exaggerated in the figure). At absolute zero temperature, the system is in the state with the minimum thermal energy, the ground state.

  6. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_temperature

    This definition also precisely related the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which defines the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature with symbol K. Absolute zero, the lowest temperature possible, is defined as being exactly 0 K and −273.15 °C. Until 19 May 2019, the temperature of the triple point of water was defined as exactly 273.16 ...

    The magnetocaloric effect can be quantified with the following equation: = ((,)) ((,)) where is the adiabatic change in temperature of the magnetic system around temperature T, H is the applied external magnetic field, C is the heat capacity of the working magnet (refrigerant) and M is the magnetization of the refrigerant.

    The lowest confirmed air temperature was recorded at 34 degrees below zero in River Vale. Before then, the state record low was a temperature of -26 degrees Fahrenheit reported in January 1873.
