Currently temperature measurements are traceable to the 1990 International Temperature Scale (ITS-90) or the 2000 Provisional Low Temperature Scale (PLTS-2000) below 1 K. These scales have an empirical basis and are based on a series of fixed points whose temperatures have been determined a priori by primary methods.

Objectives

Extension of primary thermometry
