Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance. Absolute zero is the point at which the fundamental particles of nature have ...

Researchers from four universities in Germany have conditioned a lab to register the coldest effective temperature in a research-controlled environment ever recorded—38 trillionths of a Kelvin above ...

Researchers from four universities in Germany have created the coldest temperature ever recorded in a lab—38 trillionths of a degree warmer than absolute zero to be exact, according to their new work, ...

This press release is available in German. What is normal to most people in winter has so far been impossible in physics: a minus temperature. On the Celsius scale minus temperatures are only ...

Absolute zero is often thought to be the coldest temperature possible. But now researchers show they can achieve even lower temperatures for a strange realm of "negative temperatures." Oddly, another ...
