kelvin scale
On the kelvin scale, temperature is determined by the kinetic energy of particles, so a gas of slow particles is colder than a gas of fast-moving ones.

Kelvin works on a scale that starts at a measurement around 2,000K and goes up to about 12,000K for the bulbs you typically find in a retail store.

The latter seems too large to be a Coulombic barrier, and is more likely connected with the crystal field energy scale of several hundred kelvin.

For historical reasons, the triple point is fixed at 273.16 units of the measurement increment, which has been named the kelvin in honor of the Scottish physicist who first defined the scale.

Since the standardization of the kelvin in the International System of Units, it has subsequently been redefined in terms of the equivalent fixing points on the Kelvin scale.
