Negative absolute temperatures

2.28K views

I read that scientists created a substance that was below absolute zero. How is that possible? Is it some mathematical quirk in how they calculate temperature, or can it actually be said to be physically ‘colder’ than something at absolute zero? What are alternate definitions of temperature

Impossible. Not only is it also only theoretically possible for the temperature to reach -273°C (0K), no matter how much more heat you drain, you cannot get the temperature to drop further
