  2. Kelvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin

    In 1967/1968, Resolution 3 of the 13th CGPM renamed the unit increment of thermodynamic temperature "kelvin", symbol K, replacing "degree Kelvin", symbol °K. [ 39 ] [ 40 ] [ 41 ] The 13th CGPM also held in Resolution 4 that "The kelvin, unit of thermodynamic temperature, is equal to the fraction ⁠ 1 / 273.16 ⁠ of the thermodynamic ...

  3. Color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature

    The 15,000 K black-body spectrum (dashed line) matches the visible part of the stellar SPD much better than the black body of 9500 K. All spectra are normalized to intersect at 555 nanometers. In astronomy , the color temperature is defined by the local slope of the SPD at a given wavelength, or, in practice, a wavelength range.

  4. Degree (temperature) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_(temperature)

    Rankine (°R or °Ra), which uses the Fahrenheit scale, adjusted so that 0 degrees Rankine is equal to absolute zero. Unlike the degree Fahrenheit and degree Celsius, the kelvin is no longer referred to or written as a degree (but was before 1967 [1] [2] [3]). The kelvin is the primary unit of temperature measurement in the physical sciences ...

  5. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    The 273.15 K difference between K and °C is rounded to 273 K to avoid false precision in the Celsius value. E The 273.15 K difference between K and °C is within the precision of these values. F For a true black-body (which the plasma was not). The Z machine's dominant emission originated from 40 MK electrons (soft x-ray emissions) within the ...

  6. Negative temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_temperature

    Other degrees of freedom, such as molecular vibrational, electronic and electron spin levels are at a positive temperature, so the object still has positive sensible heat. Relaxation actually happens by exchange of energy between the nuclear spin states and other states (e.g. through the nuclear Overhauser effect with other spins).

  9. Fahrenheit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit

    For an exact conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius, and kelvins of a specific temperature point, the following formulas can be applied. Here, f is the value in degrees Fahrenheit, c the value in degrees Celsius, and k the value in kelvins: f °F to c °C: c = ⁠ f − 32 / 1.8 ⁠ c °C to f °F: f = c × 1.8 + 32
