The redefinition of the SI unit the kelvin in May 2019 opened new possibilities for the realization, dissemination and measurement of temperature. Besides the two practical temperature scales that were in place before the redefinition, now, through the mechanism of the mise en pratique for the definition of the kelvin, temperature can be realized and disseminated through primary thermometry approaches with direct traceability to the redefined kelvin. Initial progress towards realizing the redefined kelvin will be discussed, with emphasis on temperatures >1235 K and <25 K.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
