Want some of my Family tea? It has a secret recipe that nly my family know's of. And the the special ingredient that only I have and know of.

Oooooh! I wonder if that's in my tea universe! Probably not though.

Hi Loony!

No, you're fine.*Drinks some tea*Besides, there's a lot to talk about.

Of course! It's just that there's so much you can't always figure out which of them to start with first! *giggles*

This just isn't worth arguing about.

It isn't. How did we get here from talking about cool states of matter? o3o

"Temperature is a measure of the ability of a substance, or more generally of any physical system, to transfer heat energy to another physical system. The higher the temperature of an object is, the greater the tendency of that object to transfer heat."Heat energy. The movement is kinetic energy, so yes, heat is energy.Watch the Vsauce video before criticizing it. YouTube it.

"A temperature is a numerical measure of hot and cold. Its measurement is by detection of heat radiation, particle velocity, kinetic energy, or most commonly, by the bulk behavior of a thermometric material."

"Heating is transfer of energy, from a hotter body to a colder one, other than by work or transfer of matter. It occurs spontaneously whenever a suitable physical pathway exists between the bodies."

"Thermal energy is a term sometimes used to refer to the internal energy present in a system in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium by virtue of its temperature."

Heat is not energy. Scientists painstakingly stress that heat is not energy. It is the transfer of Thermal Energy--more accurately, kinetic energy--from one mass to another. I believe Vsauce was talking about thermal energy, but used heat for layman's terms. I'll watch it shortly.

Regardless, they can't measure that high, and only estimate. Which is likely going to be inaccurate. Plus, Vsauce did a vid about how past a certain temperature, heat may becomes nothing more than pure energy. An "absolute hot," so to speak. Logically, think about it. How likely is it that any amount of space can reach that temperature? And how logical is it to believe that it damaged nothing? Heat is a very fluid energy, and expands rapidly.

Heat is not energy, nor does it expand. Heat is the measure of how fast a particle is moving. Thermal Energy is the sum total of all the kinetic energy of an object. So however fast the particles are moving, that'a how hot they are. Vsauce is wrong in this respect. As a substance gets "hotter", it's actually moving faster, which is why solid turns into liquid turns into gas, and hot gas expands more quickly than cold gas. As you get hotter, you get plasma, and eventually you can get so hot that the protons and neutrons rip themselves apart into quarks and gluons. Heat can't just become pure energy. Heat is simply the speed of atoms. Thermal Energy isn't even its own energy, if you think about it. It's just the total of the kinetic energy. And since according to the kinetic-molecular model, atoms are always in movement and can't not be moving (otherwise they won't be atoms) the kinetic energy can't just escape and turn into "pure energy". And even that is a misnomer. Energy is the ability to do work. In the case of kinetic energy, that work is movement.

Wow, that was long. TL;DR: "Absolute Hot" is impossible because heat is not energy.

Textbooks also say we evolved from monkeys. That temperature just isn't logical.

I found that reference on a scientific journal, not my textbook. Specifically, Nature.

Not possible. Everything within a small distance would have been instantly vaporized. When you do Internet research, you have to be careful about accountability of sources.

It was in my science book, not the internet. The scientists estimated that temperatures reached upwards of 2 trillion degrees. Also, apparently the ALICE project (a large ion collider experiment) actually reached 5.5 trillion degrees in August 2012 in an attempt to study Quark Gluon.

My reaction also.

Bose-Einstein Condensate: A state of matter theorised by those two people, and achieved a few years ago. We cooled matter to a few billionths of a degree of Celsius above Absolute Zero. At that temperature, atoms began to lose their individual identities and start moulding together to make a smooth continuum. It wasn't perfectly smooth, of course; that's impossible. But yeah.

Quark-Gluon Plasma, otherwise known as quark soup: When matter reaches a temperature that the protons and neutrons actually split apart to reveal asymptotically free (woo I understand what that means thanks to you guys) quarks and gluons. Quarks you know about, and gluons are particles that, well, glue the quarks together.

Oh yeah. Well, at least I get to learn. =P=P We all know more than the average members of our grade, so relatively, we're all just as smart. =P And I'm learning more about things beyond my grade every day. For example, I was planning on data mining flavours of quarks tomorrow, and something relating to photons that I saw that piqued my interest. I was also interested by Bose-Einstein Condensate matter. And apparently when we created Quark-Gluon matter, we reached local temperatures of two trillion degrees. On earth. Wow.

(I learned a summary of what those two states of matter were in my science book a few days ago.)
