Scientists have performed the most accurate measurement yet of the Boltzmann constant ... the temperature of the triple point of water, the harder it gets to precisely determine the ratio of ...

And even more challenging, the dimensions will of course change with temperature and pressure. We therefore had to choose ... of which may affect the future assigned value of the Boltzmann constant – ...

The Boltzmann constant* relates ... in terms of the triple-point temperature of water (273.16 K, or about 0 degrees C and 32 degrees F), or the temperature and pressure at which water's solid ...

These five terms are: the pressure (P), volume (V ... Now with the Boltzmann constant, the mass, and the temperature in Kelvin of nitrogen gas, I get an average molecule speed of 511 meters ...

Scientists in Germany have succeeded in re-determining the Boltzmann constant ... major step toward basing the temperature unit on an unchangeable fundamental constant. Metrologists are ...

“We hope that eventually by international agreement our measurements and others will ‘fix’ the Boltzmann constant so that forever after we define temperature as a certain number of joules ...
