Additional information

Collaboration between NPL and Cranfield, funded by EPSRC GR/R68139/01 and NPL. Final results of determination of Boltzmann constant – most accurate temperature measurement ever made. The kelvin/Boltzmann constant will be redefined by these measurements. (Michael de Podesta, NPL, michael.depodesta@npl.co.uk). Attracted immediate global attention from public scientific media: Physics World cover. 2013 August: 28-32. IOP News, 2013 July, “UK leads the way in race for new temperature definition” New Scientist. 2013; 2925: 10. Scientific American. 2013 July. Acoustic Result Could Change Definition of Temperature. Precision: the measure of all things. BBC Four. du Sautoy 2013.
