Traceable thermometry • Mise en pratique for the definition of the kelvin • updated version, Comitéconsultatif de thermométrie (CCT), 2011 • http://www.bipm.org/en/publications/mep_kelvin/ • Scope: • “This document provides the information needed to perform a practical measurement of temperature in accord with the International System of Units (SI).” • The mise en pratique serves as a reference for: • the text of the ITS-90 and PLTS-2000 • a Technical Annex of material deemed essential to realisation of the ITS-90 or PLTS-2000, but not included in the scale definitions themselves • descriptions of primary thermometers for direct measurement of thermodynamic temperature • assessments of the uncertainty of the ITS-90, PLTS-2000, and measurements made by primary thermometry
Traceable thermometry • Mise en pratique for the definition of the kelvin • updated version, Comitéconsultatif de thermométrie (CCT), 2011 • http://www.bipm.org/en/publications/mep_kelvin/ • fundamental change in the practice of traceable temperature measurement • direct measurements by primary thermometers • more flexible approach → user no longer will be tied to the ITS • removes the short-term need for establishing a new unified international temperature scale from the lowest to the highest temperatures

PLTS-2000 - Realization Uncertainty for the realization of the PLTS-2000 in comparison to an approximation using a pressure calibration of the MPT adjusted to the 3He melting pressure minimum, calibrated superconductive reference point samples (W, Mo) and an interpolating resistance thermometer for the region around the minimum. Red lines show the uncertainty of the PLTS-2000 in terms of thermodynamic temperature.

Ultra low-temperature 195Pt-NMR Both Nuclear Demagnetisation Cooling and Magnetic Thermometryare two aspects of one and the same thermodynamic process. It arises from solution of proper field equations for boundary and initial values that can be controlled in the demagnetisation experiment. Thermodynamic field equations are derived from the Boltzmann equation for the phase density of metal electrons and the Master equation for the probability density to find a nuclei with z-spin. • energy density of metal electrons • energy density of nuclear spins • heat flux • magnetisation • caloric and thermal equations of state Both the thermodynamic temperature and the spin temperature result from the numerical solution of field equations for a given demagnetisation process .
