	Temperature - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		Temperature is the physical property of a system which underlies the common notions of "hot" and "cold"; the material with the higher temperature is said to be hotter.
		The temperature of a system at thermodynamic equilibrium is defined by a relation between between the amount of heat $\delta Q$ incident on the system during an infinitesimal quasistatic transformation, and the variation $\delta S$ of its entropy during this transformation.
		The temperature 0 K is called absolute zero and corresponds to the point at which the molecules and atoms have the least possible thermal energy.

	Temperature - Temperature Conversion Formulas, History and Definition including Fahrenheit, Celsius,
		Temperature is a property of matter which reflects the quantity of energy of motion of the component particles.
		In 1848 William Thomson devised the Kelvin temperature scale which was derived based on thermodynamics, where 0K corresponds to absolute zero, or the coldest temperature theoretically possible and 273.15K is the freezing point of water.
		In 1954, the Kelvin temperature scale was selected as the metric unit of thermodynamic measure.

		Temperature is measured by means of a thermometer or other instrument having a scale calibrated in units called degrees.
		The Kelvin temperature scale is an absolute scale having degrees the same size as those of the Celsius temperature scale; the Rankine temperature scale is an absolute scale having degrees the same size as those of the Fahrenheit temperature scale.
		Temperature is an intrinsic property of a system, meaning that it does not depend on the system size or the amount of material in the system.

		The kelvin (symbol: K) is the SI unit of temperature and is one of the seven SI base units.
		The kelvin is a unit measure of temperature on the thermodynamic (absolute) temperature scale where absolute zero—the coldest possible temperature where there is no heat energy—is defined as zero kelvin (0 K).

	Metric System Temperature (kelvin and degree Celsius)
		The degree Celsius (°C) scale was devised by dividing the range of temperature between the freezing and boiling temperatures of pure water at standard atmospheric conditions (sea level pressure) into 100 equal parts.
		Temperatures on this scale were at one time known as degrees centigrade, however it is no longer correct to use that terminology.
		Temperatures on this scale are called kelvins, NOT degrees kelvin, kelvin is not capitalized, and the symbol (capital K) stands alone with no degree symbol.

		When a temperature difference does exist, heat will tend to move from the higher temperature system to the lower temperature system, until thermal equilibrium is again established.
		One must be careful when measuring temperature to ensure that the measuring instrument (thermometer, thermocouple, etc) is really the same temperature as the material that is being measured.
		The macroscopic temperature of a system is related to the total heat stored in all of these modes and in a normal system thermal energy is constantly being exchanged between the various modes.

		It is defined by two facts: zero kelvin is absolute zero (when molecular motion stops), and one kelvin is the fraction 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water (0.01°C;).
		Unlike temperature scales which use the degree symbol, there is a space between the number and the K, as with all other SI units.
		In a thermodynamic system, the energy carried by the particles is proportional to the absolute temperature, where the constant of proportionality is the Boltzmann constant.

	Celsius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The degree Celsius is also a unit increment of temperature for use in indicating a temperature interval (a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty).
		For the next 204 years, the scientific and thermometry communities world-wide referred to this scale as the “centigrade scale.” Temperatures on the centigrade scale were often reported simply as “degrees” or, when greater specificity was desired, “degrees centigrade.” The symbol for temperature values on this scale was °C (in several formats over the years).
		The OED also cites this 1928 reporting of a temperature: “My altitude was about 5,800 metres, the temperature was 28° Celsius.” However, dictionaries seek to find the earliest use of a word or term and are not a useful resource as regards the terminology used throughout the history of science.

		A temperature scale that is used a lot in science (and astronomy in particular) is the Kelvin scale.
		It is fixed by two temperatures: zero degrees Celsius is the freezing temperature of water (at a standard sea-level air pressure), and a hundred degrees Celsius is the boiling temperature of water at the same pressure.
		It is fixed by two temperatures: zero degrees Fahrenheit was the temperature of a mix of water, ice, and salt.
